CustomBridge can be used to create either a Doom-style or Hexen-style invisible bridge, and can also further customize the appearance and behavior of the rotating "bridge balls" when used as a Hexen-style bridge.

When placed in a map, the bridge's arguments control its appearance and behavior, as follows:

• Arg 1: Bridge radius, in mapunits
• Arg 2: Bridge height, in mapunits
• Arg 3: Number of bridge balls to display.
• Arg 4: Rotation speed and direction of bridge balls. 0 uses Hexen's default. Values from 1-128 rotate counterclockwise, while values from 129-255 go clockwise. For example:

• 0: Hexen default
• 11: 15° / second
• 21: 30° / second
• 32: 45° / second
• 64: 90° / second
• 128: 180° / second
• 192: -90° / second
• 223: -45° / second
• 233: -30° / second
• 244: -15° / second

• Arg 5: Rotation radius of bridge balls, in bridge radius %. 0 is Hexen-default (15 units regardless of bridge radius)

Note: When inheriting from this actor in Decorate, you can redefine the Spawn state to change the way the bridge behaves as a Doom-format bridge (Arg 3 set to 0), or the See state to alter the way it behaves as a Hexen bridge. This can be used, for example, to change which actors are spawned instead of the bridge balls.
