Idea Base: Lack of armor items in the item store,

Description:
-This a new type of armor that makes possible to add armor and ammo together! This can save your life on difficult situations

Preview:

Not too shabby. However, there are a few things that need mentioning:

• You might want to remove the COUNTITEM flag, since if you have full armor and bullets, the item cannot be picked up, and thus 100% item collection is not possible.
• The item doesn't play a pickup sound due to a typo in the pickup sound name.
• There is no need to loop a single-frame, action-less state. I'm referring to the Spawn state of the item.
• Remove the editor number (DoomEdNum).
• The INFO lump is missing.

Thanks for your suggestions i fixed all those issues:

-I removed the COUNTITEM flag but if you pickup the armor again it gives you another 100 clips.
-Now the item properly plays a pickup sound.
-Added "Goto Spawn" in the spawn function.
-Removed the editor number.
-Added the INFO lump.

That's the same thing as looping the state. :p What you want to do is this:

When the state sequence reaches a negative-duration state, it'll stop there.

Im learning DECORATE so that comes in handly thank you very much!

[EDIT]

I fixed that issue and uploaded a newer file with the fixed code.

I think this is pretty nice, actually. Any chance you could try adding a flashing animation to the armor vest, like the standard green armor? I'm not sure if that would make it look better or worse, but I'm curious to see what the result would be. (That's just my personal curiosity, though, so you don't need to feel obligated to do it. )

Yeah, this is what I would like to see as well

Oh, and if you do wind up giving it the flashing animation, I'd suggest also copying over the GLDefs from the regular green armor, so it has the glow effect in GZDoom.

Was there any update to this? I'm personally okay with it as it is. Flashing/GLDefs could be added as an update if they are so desired (and maybe some for the Tech Armor? It doesn't appear to have any on it either).

Since there is no word from the author, and I agree with Dreadopp that it's fine as is, I might as well approve it rather than reject it.
