Not sure if this a bug or if anyone else has had this issue. Using the SetPlayerHealth = 0 in the script seems to cause a freeze at the red screen when I lose all health/life. See video link. Rockfall is delayed due to video software.

thanks smallg, I literally found that command late last night and totally forgot that existed. Am I guessing that the SetPlayerHealth command is more for adding health rather than decrementing health? But then we have the AddPlayerHealth(e) also. Also, this does not explain why SetPlayerHealth(0) brings up the red screen and freezes. So to me that's still a bug with the command as it's not bringing the player back into the gameplay again even if I have 1 life left. I'll place the trigger somewhere else away from the rockfall and see if it still happens.

[update-HurtPlayer works which was expected]

I think setplayerhealth is intended more for the initial set up of the player and the other 2 commands are for use during gameplay....
It can be a bit confusing but hurtplayer allows an entity id which makes it show directional damage information.

thanks again smallg, yes that makes a lot of sense.
