Alright, I shall be sure to activate both in GzDoom when the time comes. I was always afraid to activate falling damage in standard Doom as it is often designed to drop you down long pits.

Hey, that is exactly what I am happy for. Spoiling everything would make it not as fun. I tend to not like spoilers.

Hey, they say it should have less buffering, so we shall see. This whole thing is essentially a test, I prefer to use the better thing if I have a choice.

I was actually planning on asking you to help me test it. I have gotten things to the point where they are pretty functional, including that replacement I mentioned. The one negative thing is that I lose the ability for text to disappear after a bit of time, meaning that all future streams will have a small box showing the last two comments. I am planning on keeping it hidden until somebody comments, in which case I will pause the game and turn it on. This will allow streams where nobody talks to not have an annoying welcome message to the side, while in active chats you can see the messages that are being sent. If CSS could be edited, it could be possible to fix this, but as it stands I am pretty limited in this regard sadly. However, I do believe it is worth mentioning that the average stream is a lot more "flashy" than mine, often putting the game in a smaller window with a bunch of other stuff around it like Donation amounts and Subscriber counts while they do some dance on a webcam. Though having this text show isn't ideal in my opinion, it is still a lot better than what most others do for their streams. Personally, I feel the focus should be on the game, so minimalism is key.

The App is a bit funky as well (eventually I plan on having a second monitor setup which will help tremendously in this avenue, it just is a matter of getting the high quality monitor and a better desk to hold everything), I would need to load up the stream on my phone after starting the stream on my computer, meaning that there might be a few seconds where I need to set up things before we get to recording (meaning the recording portion would work exactly the same). The interesting thing is that I can see my own stream, albeit with a lengthy delay that is a lot worse than the actual stream. At the least, I guess this means that I will be aware if my stream has gone down for a decent length of time, even if it still will be ideal if somebody reports it.

From a few moments of testing, it felt like Twitch to me in the actual stream, though it is extremely difficult to tell when I have to do everything. I will need somebody to help me test it to determine how much of a difference we are actually getting with Hitbox. Today has been a lengthy day as I have been setting up stuff that goes against everything I am used to, but hopefully they will make great improvements with only minor sacrifices in other areas. I am still having to learn Opera after having trained myself for so long in Maxthon, though the fact that I am actually able to use Hitbox outweighs the cons.
