Underwater damage

[Triple-X]

You dont lose health being underwater in sandbox and my gamemode is derived from it so i was wondering if there was something out there to take like, 5% health for every 3 seconds underwater. Something like that. Thanks!

now I'm not sure how you would call this so it was efficient but Entity:WaterLevel() returns 3 if the player is fully underwater. you may have to hack it in or there might be something I'm missing for drowning dsmage.

why do you need so much help? no offence, but I see tons of threads by you that are asking for help.
for this you would probably need to do a for loop count, then if the total occurs then kill the player

He's allowed to ask questions. It's up to people to either answer him or not. So truly, it is none of your business if he asks a lot of questions.

You really should try to find something out for yourself, for once. You want something you've seen before. [i]Okay, where have I see this before?[/i] For one, TTT. It comes with GMod, and obviously you can see the source. [i]Okay, I know generally where this is, but not where specifically it is.[/i] As tyguy said, you would check player.WaterLevel. One quick search later, lines 1025-1092 of player.lua.
