No. For each call of A_Explode, all eligible actors for damaging in radius are damaged once. So that's not actually a problem. > Could work, and should be able to use something like A\_GiveToTarget instead of having to worry about different types of attack. That has the same inherent problem as the melee attack method; only one actor would be damaged, which is the target.

A_Explode damages everything nearby regardless of whether there's a target or not. You can have the radiation cloud actor perform this every so often without needing to look for a target. Or, for inventory, you could use A_RadiusGive, which works off the same no-target principle.

Screenshots: Download Link:")* ok so I tried A_Explode and it seems to work, but doesn't allow for a damage type (even though the wiki says it does) I tried the correct A_Explode function with the damage type specified with the latest gzdoom version and it runs, but with a bunch of errors, and no longer inflicts damage... So I think A_RadiusGive might be my best bet, question is: which action function should I use for the item to damage the person who has the item? Something like Actor LOWRADS { States { Spawn: (Would I use a spawn state?) TNT1 A 30 (ACTION FUNCTION TO HARM WHOEVER HAS IT) } } Cheers for the help, its been a while since I've had time to work on this Please [Log in](https://www.realm667.com/component/users/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cucmVhbG02NjcuY29tL2ZvcnVtL2Nsb3NlZC1zdWJtaXNzaW9ucy84NzYtcmFkaWF0aW9uLXN1Ym1pc3Npb24/c3RhcnQ9MTA=&Itemid=2662) or [Create an account](https://www.realm667.com/component/users/registration?Itemid=2662) to join the conversation. - **HexenMapper** - ![HexenMapper's Avatar](https://www.realm667.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar10732.jpg) Topic Author - Dark Imp - ![Dark Imp](https://www.realm667.com/media/kunena/ranks/rank_41_darkimp.png) Less More- Posts: 12 - - 9 years 3 months ago [\#5895](#5895) by HexenMapper Replied by *HexenMapper* on topic *[Radiation \[SUBMISSION\]](https://www.realm667.com/forum/closed-submissions/876-radiation-submission?start=10#5895 "Information: Type: Damaging SFX Connections: None Spawn Offsets: N/A Documentation: None Spawn Ceiling: No Variants: 3 variants: ColdSpot, WarmSpot and HotSpot.

Create a MAPINFO lump and put the RADS damage type's definition in it (remove the one that you have in DECORATE): Code: DamageType RADS { Factor = 1.0 Obituary = "%o received a fatal dose of radiation" } [strike]As a side note: I think your code needs optimization or something. Using GZDoom 3.0, I experienced two moments of slowdown/lag, one when I got in range of the radiations and another when I got damaged by said radiations.[/strike] Edit: Nevermind the lag issue above. It turned out it's just the sounds being loaded for the first time. Last edit: 9 years 3 months ago by Blue Shadow.
