Linedef type 307

Linedef type 307, Character Ability – Once, is a type of linedef executor trigger which activates any linedef executor in the control sector when a player with a specific character ability activates a tagged trigger sector. Unlike linedef type 305, this linedef executor will trigger only the first time, and then cannot be triggered again until the map is reloaded.

Setup

The length of the control linedef determines which characters with specific abilities can trigger the linedef executor, as shown in the table below:

Length	Ability
0-9	No ability
10-19	Thok
20-29	Flying
30-39	Gliding and climbing
40-49	Homing attack
50-59	Swimming
60-69	Double jump
70-79	Floating
80-89	Floating with slow descent
90-99	Telekinesis
100-109	Fall switch
110-119	Jump boost
120-129	Air drill
130-139	Jump-thok
140-149	Pogo bounce
150-159	Spin attack
