EDIT: *coughcough* Never mind. As stated below, I sincerely apologize for my stupidity. If my endeavor cannot be accomplished, however, please reply saying so.
Reason: http://wiki.srb2.org/wiki/Actions_(SOC) pretty much tells me most of the stuff I need to know.
Okay, so I'm going to make a Portal wad or SOC file (referring to Portal by Valve corporation) that essentially, if my head is set straight, turns ringslinger on and changes the slingitem to a thing that I'm going to make representing a blue portal. I'm also going to make a thing representing a red portal. Each time a slingitem is shot, the slingitem is changed from a portal of the current color to a portal of the other. I know that I'll be able to make these things because we already have teleporters, and because of the fact that I know that slingitems can interact with the floor, ceiling, and walls because every time a standard slingitem is fired at any of these things it disappears on impact. I also know that you can execute commands based on the input of firing a slingitem, because without automatic ring, you can't fire several slingitems at once; a waiting period is begun based on the fact that you have fired a slingitem. I also know that changing the slingitem is possible, as shown by the effects of weapon rings. Therefore, I personally believe this might work. So my questions to you are these:
1. Can this be done?
2 (if 1). Can this be done in a wad or SOC file?
3 (if 1 and 2). Which, if only one, and if not only one, would it be correct to say both?
4 (if 1 and 2). What program would I start with?
5 (if 1 and 2). What language, if necessary, would I use?
I've looked at the wiki, but I didn't see anything about creating things. Either I wasn't looking well enough or there is no such article. For my own ego's sake, I'd much prefer to think that there is no such article, but if there is such an article, which I prefer to doubt, I sincerely apologize for my stupidity.
