What is RTS

RTS stands for "Radius Trigger Script".

RTS is not intended to replace DDF, but accents and enhances DDF. Using both DDF and RTS together, you can create amazing events that even Quake 2 is not capable of.

With RTS, you can create scripted events that cannot be controlled by linedef triggers alone, such as a simple on-screen tip message, multiple linetypes being triggered by one switch, or a complex event where an entire structure is destroyed, monsters are spawned, sounds are played, and light levels are changed dramatically.
