Scroll down to where it says "Toxic Water"

These really need adding to the Wiki. I expect we'd need permission from each person who contributed to that thread though.

Why? Information is information. Go ahead and make an article, if you won't I'm sure someone will.

I know, but there are sometimes different methods of doing the same thing in hammer. I could certainly understand if someone got a bit upset at seeing their own tutorial put on the wiki, word for word, without them even been asked or notified. Not that I would ever mind if I were ever to make a tut, but surely a simple please and thankyou isn't much to ask.

And if they refuse, just post it up anyway and reword it a little

Considering they are hotlinking to the old Portal files over here, I think they can deal with us re-using some of their tutorial content.

Anyway, it's simple. Make a trigger_hurt and set the damage type to Chemical.

I think drown, with damage set to 50-70 works best. Just my opnion though. That's what I used, ands it works well.

EDIT: Whoops, necromancy.

Ask then...

And before you do, no I dont mind, anything I post here can be put into the wiki without asking me, although I'm not fantastic at hammer and my solutions are usually a little messy
