A step-by-step of what I've found to be the necessary logic chain for completing a level. While most of this is mundane "hit this trigger to make griggs say something", it's useful for two thing:
- understanding what you're actually doing in a level when running
- glitch hunting, especially looking for potential skips/oobs; there's limited areas where those would be useful in the first place, so why not look where it's useful?
items marked by a double dash (--) are not necessary, just explanations
Anyway, everything should be self-explanatory, but if not, just ask me about something on the cod discord
