thanks but i'm awful at lua, do you have the script or something?

Then do this in the S_SKIN

rollitem = MT_GHOST

it produces the same mobj, so you shoudnt find any trouble using it

 

[Buggie]

also btw MT_GHOST is just an mobj that takes your sprite and makes it transparent a little(and dissappears) anyway if you want to make the exact ghost effect then you need Lua

rollitem = MT_GHOST

Heres a script to spawn a ghost:
addHook("PlayerThink", function(player)
if player.mo.skin == "yourcharacternamehere" -- you can delete this line to make it works for any character (not recommended)
local ghost = P_SpawnGhostMobj(player.realmo)
end
end)

what about colors?

Colors are automatically put on the ghost to reflect the player's color.
Also, if a thok trail is what the outcome is supposed to be, the code would be:

addHook("PlayerThink", function(player)
    if not(player.mo and player.mo.valid and player.mo.skin == "skinname") then return end
    
    if player.pflags&PF_THOKKED
        local ghost = P_SpawnGhostMobj(player.mo)
        ghost.fuse = 10
        --Colorize is optional, just makes the ghost be completely blue or whatever
        ghost.colorized = true
    end
end)

[cheeseboi.]

addHook("PlayerThink", function(player)
    if not(player.mo and player.mo.valid and player.mo.skin == "skinname") then return end
    
    if player.pflags&PF_THOKKED
        local ghost = P_SpawnGhostMobj(player.mo)
        ghost.fuse = 10
        --Colorize is optional, just makes the ghost be completely blue or whatever

Thank you.

But how would you make the ghost effect appear based on sonic or the characters speed like the effect appears when moving at a speed of 42 fracunit
