In Response To: Can you switch sides within a level? (Steve Levinson)

For example, in a version of Converted Church populated by both Bobs and Pfhor, neither of whom considers you friend or foe, you might be albe to literally select the outcome depending on who you shoot. No need for dream sequences with this option - you can choose your destiny on the fly.

That's an really interesting possibility Steve.

I'm just curious, but can anyone think up the technical feats required to swing such an level? The only choice you're left with are Tag-related tricks (Timed platforms that change the course of a level) - that I can think of.

So... how can the player shooting either BoB's or Pfhor (Side A or Side B) slow you down, or speed up your progress?

Could this level selecting trick potentially be thrown out of wack by the player by them shooting *everyone? Not likley - just fix it to have two options: If ALL characters die - you're slowed down - you get the result of the slowed down plank (like when you let the reactor blow on harry Legs... or is that a different level? I forget...)

If you help the winning side (chosen by the maps author) - basically the side with the most forces - you're sped up and recieve the "player beat the clock" level ending.

If there are other considerations, please let me know. I'd like to exploit this in WMaiD. : )
