RADIATION!

This is a suggestion to those who like to make dungeons that are both rewarding and challenging.

I suggest that there is an ability for some to create radiation chambers. These would be small rooms that deal damage to players over a certain period of time. Like, when they walk in the room, they would recieve 2/3 HP every 3/4 seconds.

What does this offer? Protection.

For instance, players could trap someone in a room, activate radiation and watch them die slowly! :D

Could this be done, well, yeah I would guess so. :)

If radiation is invisible (or maybe just smoke particles) then you could have that feature. I am sure there is way to impliment death over time, somehow.

This could also be used in dungeons. I hear that a group of people are going around making dungeons that reward players with coin or items. Having this feature could enable science themed dungeons and wided a whole load of possibilities (like ''Finish the Room'' in a certain time limit).

I like the idea about the dungeon and the reward with coin part.
For the radation, it could act like poision. (Or just replace the floor with cactus.)

Cactus deals constant damage. With cactus you cant place them right next to each other.

The idea of a poison also came to mind. Maybe somehow poison could be implicated to a certain room where people would get harmed every other second maybe?

I know a good way to do this :D
you know drowning?
you could make a room drown you without water(poision)
so you would walk like normally but have the drowning animation displaied.

It's a decent idea, but there isn't a good way to make is visible and I wouldn't want it otherwise....Have you ever seen an entire room fill with smoke animation for an instant? 90 fps down to 0 lol. Ever see the smoke last longer, as this would? No fps. Ever.

Cool idea though, would be fun for dungeons if it could just be something left by admins. Maybe a special region that does damage? Although we still need the visible part....

No no no, the smoke animation will play when the player is HARMED by the radiation. Like the smoke that appears when a certain class disappears.

It needs a cloud or haze or something though. Can't just be walking around and hit an invisible cloud of fuck you out of nowhere.
