the things in the commonside arent loaded from your map, you will have to make a custom powerup in order to see a changeingame

You need to make a custom ingame.lvl file to edit that.
Saying this is impossible doesn't seem to have much impact, so I won't bother this time.

Wouldn't it be pretty hard to tell if its impossible or not until you try it?

If making a custom ingame.lvl is all super duper hard to do then I don't know if I should even bother with this :sick: . Anyone willing to share how to get started with this?

Custom ingame.lvls aren't hard at all, there's a tutorial in the FAQ. However, I don't think ammo drops can have negative values. I tried something similar with energy and didn't have much luck.

If you've been modding for a while you pick up a decent sense of what's feasable and what's not.

They can have negative values, I made a drop that takes your health away. But I also tried to make a drop that takes ammo away and I didnt notice it work at all.

Ah, yes, I do remember that. I didn't try negative health drops - I'm curious, did you ever get negative energy to work? I suppose health is just more malleable than anything else.
