+damage

This command is used to apply damage to yourself. Staffers can also use the command to deal damage to another character.

Usage

+damage [<Target>=]<Number>[ <Type>][ to <Hit Location] <Number> is the only required parameter, and must be an integer.

• <Target> is the player that will be damaged. If omitted, the target is yourself.
• <Type> is the damage type of the wound, which affects how much is absorbed by armor and what skills are used to treat the injury.
• <Hit Location> is the area of the body being damaged. This currently has no mechanical effect, but is useful if you wish to keep track of where you've been injured.

Examples:

• Damaging Yourself

+damage 1
[Combat System] 

• Damaging Somebody Else (Staffer Only)

+damage Vic=1
[Combat System] 

• Using a Damage Type

+damage 1 Fire
[Combat System] 

• Using a Hit Location

+damage 1 to Left Arm
[Combat System] 

• Combining Type and Location

+damage 1 Cutting to Throat
[Combat System]

Effects

• The specified amount and type of damage will be applied to the character.
• If armor is worn, it will subtract its defense value beforehand.
• Armor is damaged as it blocks hits. Eventually it will break, and need to be repaired before it can be used again.
• A character taking more damage from a single source than their damage threshold will suffer a stacking -1 penalty until they can recover.
• A character who suffers more damage than their health total or who reaches a -6 penalty is incapacitated and can no longer take combat actions.

NOTE: Damage works, but Healing is currently not finished.
