TrapUpdate

Syntax:

TrapUpdate

Special function which allows traps to deal damage.

For a trap to deal damage, the following variables need to be defined in its script:

float	fTrapDamage	Amount of damage to do each time the trap affects an actor.
float	fTrapPushBack	Amount of push back force to apply each time a trap effects an actor. This should range from 0 to 1000.
float	fTrapDeathPushBack	Presumably when the trap kills the actor, either adds to fTrapPushBack or is used in its place. Not seen used in game scripts, but game code does check for it.
float	fTrapMinVelocity	Minimum velocity a trap must be moving at relative to the actor to do damage (combination of actor and traps respective velocities). This value is in BSUnits (128 = 6ft).
float	bTrapContinuous	0 = Only deal damage on first contact with trap. 1 = Continously subtract damage as long as actor is in contact with trap.
float	fLevelledDamage	Amount of additional damage to do per level of the actor. The total damage done by the trap is equal to: fLevelledDamage * actorLevel + fTrapDamage

TrapUpdate can be put in a GameMode block; everytime it's called it checks whether any actor is in contact with the trap and takes care of the damage, as defined by the above variables.
