ITEM SUGGESTION: STAKE SCRIPT/BARBED WIRE

[Marco]

This feature could act as a barricade that deals damage if you run into it, there is already a mod on GMOD that has trap scripts along side this suggestion.

It won't kill you unless you run into it repeatedly or jump into the spike, but it will deal damage and allow for more intuitive defensive strategies.

uses:
It could be used to stop shotgun rush
Kills NPCs that walk through it
Limits movement and forces attackers to follow a specific direction or expend resources and time to remove the defensive barricade with a grenade or wire cutters.

both factions could use this to defend areas better.

I think it's cool conceptually but sounds like a practical nightmare. I'm sure whatever map and whichever area of it already is a major hindrance to movement - now to cordon off these few bottlenecks with both damaging and debilitating objects.. seems like no fun for anyone

usage of these scripts could be regulated with updates to rules and to make said scripts easy to destroy by shooting it.
The point of this suggestion is to 'SLOW' an intruder down, not to absolutely stop them. the damage feature is only if you ignore it entirely, and the damage could be small as well.

Declined

Moving this to declined since its been in the backlog for too long, if it hasn't been picked up by now then we're likely not able to prioritize it. Feel Free to re-suggest it in the future!
