==Line triggers== Linked portals are set up by using linedef types (specials). If the map format is [[UDMF]], they are also set up using UDMF sector and linedef properties. ===UDMF format=== The following specials are used in UDMF to setup portals: [[Portal_Define]] and [[Line_QuickPortal]]. Then, on each sector you can set the '''portalfloor''' and '''portalceiling''' properties, using portal ID, to apply newly defined portal on the respective surfaces. On each linedef you can set the '''portal''' property similarly. The portal ID can be made negative as well: this spawns a portal going the opposite direction. For example, a linedef linked portal going from area A to B has a positive '''portal''' setting, and the corresponding linedef going from B to A has the negative value for '''portal'''. ===Classic Doom format=== # Class Trig Description 358 Ext -- Apply linked portal to like-tagged ceilings 359 Ext -- Apply linked portal to like-tagged floors 360 Ext -- Linked portal anchor line for special 358 361 Ext -- Linked portal anchor line for special 359 376 Ext -- Apply linked portals to like-tagged lines 377 Ext -- Anchor line for special 376 385 Ext -- Apply portal to front sector For sectors you will use the specials 358, 359, 360, 361 and 385, while for lines you'll use 376 and 377.
