[EDGE] Is a motorcycle possible?

Anyways, this crazy concept popped up in my head for a weapon mod. Basically, it's a motorcycle that you can use to run over enemies. Basically, the concept is similar to various Wolf3D mods featuring a rideable bike. Is something like this possible in EDGE, at least? If so, is anyone able to come up with a code?

A driveable motorcycle isn't really possible in Edge unless you wanted to make it so the player could never get off the bike. And even then, you would still be able to strafe. An example of how to at least accomplish the enemy running over stuff would be to give a monster touch states, and upon being touched, they would jump to their death states. Of course, there also isn't a way to determine how fast the player is moving, so merely nudging them would kill them.
So it's partially possible but it just isn't worth it unless you're willing to edit the Doom source code yourself (like most of the wolf3d mods do anyway).

Hmm, funny, I had the same idea for my mod, a motorcycle... among other "driveable" vehicles.
