How could I make people take damage when they’re touching a wall

[sir_lancelot]

You could use lasers on the wall… but that would take a lot of memory

[CassiusDoomlorde]

That’s also the only way to do it.

[AverageMale]

Or maybe you could use zones around the sides

[sir_lancelot]

there probably is another way that i don’t know

[Haiasi]

(Zone) Player Enters Zone --> (Laser Beam) Activate Laser

You can also use Triggers for uneven areas or if it’s just a small area and would be more memory-efficient.

[CassiusDoomlorde]

Well, if we had negative health granters then yes, but we don’t.

[sir_lancelot]

but how would you make the zones do damage?

[sir_lancelot]

besides lasers. @AverageMale

[CassiusDoomlorde]

You could activate sentries I suppose but that would be clunky.

Pseudo-Health.

Pseudo-Health, what it does, how to use it (Difficulty: )

Pseudo-health is tricking the game into using a property for health. Since it is a property we can set it to start at 100 (or 200 for shield) or some absurd number like 10,000. [Screenshot 2023-10-17 10.07.54] The default value is the amount of health that you want to start with. If you want a zone to deal damage without using lasers do player entered zone (zone) → trigger (trigger) that trigger would subtract any amount you want from the property. [Screenshot 2023-10-17 10.09.18] And you…

Lasers are more cost/memory-efficient though so it’s the most viable option.

[StacheIsTaken]

Why would you activate it when they enter the zone? why not just have it there the entire time?

[StarfallNova]

Invisible lasers? @sir_lancelot is right though, it would take a lot of memory.

[getrithekd]

A laser is only 75 memory lol.

[Pika_Pokemon]

Assume the barriers is the room
add the lasers like in this picture

change these settings:

finally, set the laser color to the “black”

[Aubec7]

I see that this topic has been answered so maybe mark a solution so that we could move on, if your still confused or this didn’t help please let us know

[Pika_Pokemon]

note:
this takes up 75 x 4 = 300 memory (assuming lasers are already placed)
otherwise, its 250 + 75 x 3 = 475 memory
thats honestly not a lot of memory

[Aubec7]

dont zones take up more memory than lasers?

Renewed - Gimkit Devices Ranked by Memory

Continued from this guide by WhoAmI. The goal of this guide is to rank devices from memory. You only have 100,000 memory, so this could be useful for calculating how much memory a device has. This is a simple table of devices in GimKit Creative ranked by memory from top to bottom: # Component Name Memory 1 Tag Zone 1500 2 Sentry (First Placement) 1000 3 Sentry 500 4 Block Code 500 5 Repeater 500 6 Flag 450 7 Movement Meter 400 8 Zone 300 9 Flag Capture Zone 300 10 Qu…

also im pretty sure you cant make zones make players take damage, you can suggest that here tho, gimkit.nolt.io

[CassiusDoomlorde]

By 125 [note that this assumes multiple zones are placed]

[Pika_Pokemon]

if only health granters granted negative health…
it still doesnt
im sad
