new superman/flash/road runner etc speed drug
*warning can cause harmful side effects*
first you need to place an entity (in my case i used syringes but it should work with anything)
turn off physics
turn on always active
make sure it\'s dynamic (as with all objects running scripts)
enter into the name field any name you like
enter into the ifused field that same name (very important those 2 match and there are no repeats - i.e. you must use different names for each object, even those running this same script)
apply the script
now when you run the game you press e to pickup as normal and hold e for a while (setting changable in script) to activate
note you only need 1 script which you apply to every syringe or entity you want to give this effect (no need to rename or alter the script but you can change the settings which i have highlighted at the top)
also it should be possible to have different settings for different syringes but i didn\'t test that, you should be able to substitute the e with the actual entity number and it\'ll work however - if you wanted different speeds or durations etc)

note there is no sound but i can add some if you wish.
also collision will be ignored, i can add a very basic system but unless we get a proper collision detection i can't really fix that, sorry
