There should also be markers for splat pads/antisplat pads. People who have never played LPIV can potentially get confused by the splat/antisplat pads in the Wasteland set as they look like continuous traps.

Have level designer's block right now? Have some of my incomplete levels for LOTS of ideas!

What (short) description or icon do you suggest for these objects? Missing a good option here was one of the two main reasons, why I haven't yet added such markers. The second reason is, that currently there is just one design for such objects, so players get confused only once and not for every single style.

For future reference, here the topic with a list of all already existing object markers.

Hmmm...that's a tough question. And that's a good point that there is only one design of the Splat/Antisplat pads (not counting a Cheapo graphic set).

So far, the only thing I can think of is "SPLAT" for the splat pad, and "NO SPLAT" for anti-splat pads. There are better suggestions though.

I'm going to close this topic, as the issue here can be had in the form of further discussion in the existing one that Nepster linked.
