Creating Zones #

Use the zoning menu accessed via mom_zone_showmenu to create trick zones all around the map. Use the tricks zone type:

mom_zone_auto_make_stage

Whether the “auto” setting for mom_zone_type should create a stage zone or an end zone (after initial start zone).

mom_zone_back

Goes back a step when zone building.

mom_zone_cancel

Cancels the building of the current zone.

mom_zone_checkpoint_draw_color

Color of the checkpoint zone(s) in RGBA format.

mom_zone_checkpoint_draw_mode

Changes the draw mode of the checkpoint zone(s). 0 = Off; invisible, 1 = Outlines, 2 = Outlines as overlays (see through walls), 3 = Faces, 4 = Faces as overlays (see through walls).

mom_zone_create

Creates the zone that you are done building.

mom_zone_crosshair

Toggles the draw of the zoning crosshair/reticle.
