Death Plane

Post by Dispraiser »

Is it possible to make an invisible plane that kills people as they pass through it? I would use it to make ABOSLUTELY sure that no one can get to the bottom of my map. I can't see any plausible benefits of getting down there, honestly, but it's still something I look to stop. A cutoff point ten or so units below the lowest building should deter that...

make the vehicle floor pretty high so no one flys down in a vehicle. then make the fall death pretty short (i.e. how far you fall before you jsut die in mid-air). Thats pretty much guarentees it.

Invisible plane of death, I think theres that yellow glow stuff in The Maw that causes damage when you step into it, but thats pretty much it.

There's no Banshee's. The whole level is set on this huge, nearly vertical rock, but there is always a way in Halo. If people can scale the cliffs in assualt on the control room, and get to the bottom of any pit in the game... I think Halo fans have proven better than anyone before, whwere there's a will, there's a way.

If I make an invisible plane that stops them at the end of levels normally, wouldn't they be able to walk on it?

well like i said, just a big pit of the yellow circuitry glow that cuases damage when you walk through it. Set the damage higher and smother it with fog. Even if they did get down there, they wouldn't be alive for long.

Great quote. I think I'll do something like that.

Dispraiser,

If ya find out what tags/shaders cause the yellow glowy stuff to cause damage be a pal and share the info :)

I was wanting to put spikes around my base that would cause damage :twisted:

it was in one of the tutorial maps that somebody made (highend evolved, or elite mass death)

i think it was elite mass death, go DL it and see if it will do
