Just a note, I have no idea if what the title suggests is possible. I have no other ideas on how to do what I have requested and don't know how to formulate a summary, so you might wanna just ignore the title and read the description. It makes more sense. |

Maybe later. |

I think you already can do this for DECORATE user variables. You can set user_... in custom tab of the "Edit thing" dialog in GZDB. It even adds these automatically, like here: http://i.imgur.com/4sdQECy.png (variable declared as "var int user_test;") This is probably not possible in ZScript though, because ZScript has no concept of "user variable" altogether. Update: it actually also works in ZScript, if you prepend your field name with user_. Now that this is clarified going to go and update GZDB so that it automatically picks these fields up as well. Update2: it won't work for non-int variables though. Graf pls add string/double/float/whatever support :) |

I'm afraid the OP skirted around what the real benefit to this would be: directly overriding actor properties (e.g. Health, Alpha, RenderStyle, etc.) in UDMF. As mentioned, a more limited form of this sorta exists (user_ variables), but that requires explicit coding in the actor to enable (and it's a bit roundabout, not to mention the int-only limitation) compared to being able to set the property directly. |
