Is it possible to make AEmitters on Attachables do damage to their parent Actor?

If an emitter has EmissionsIgnoreThis = 0 then particles fired by the emitter will hit its parent and itself. And emitter with EmissionDamage = X will take away X health everytime a particle is fired. BurstDamage = X takes away X health when the emitter starts.

So, you want my Attachable to have AEmitters emitting into the body of the actor to do damage? That's retarded.

You could make the emitter attach to the actor directly and have EmissionsIgnoreThis = 1 and have EmissionDamage and BurstDamage, so the actor's health would "bleed" instead of getting more wounds.

That's impossible with my current setup

I'm not sure if emitters could take away health while on an attachable without wounding the actor... What is your setup?

Instead of a head I have two attachables, I want wounds to the attachables to do damage to the parent actor

I just did a test, and emitters can't drain health from an attachable. It looks like you will need some Lua.

It shouldn't be very difficult...
You can have a proximity check on every particle emitting that will check for the parent actor and reduce a fixed amount of health.
Or instead, you can check if the emitter is emitting and drain health when it is.

I ScifiSpirit made a particle for me that does 5 damage when it is emitted. So it's AAAAWIGHT
