Looks like were even in this thread now.

Also might want to tone down the Magnitude on the function, 100 pixels is quite the radius going on.

Still doesn't seem to work properly, now he just dies instantly.
Code:
function Update(self)
     for actor in MovableMan.Actors do
          if SceneMan:ShortestDistance(self.Pos, actor.Pos, false).Magnitude < 10 then
               self.Health = 0;
          end
     end
end


I think I'm going to give up soon, this just doesn't make sense, usually I'm not too bad with Lua.

Never give up!

Code:
function Update(self)
     for actor in MovableMan.Actors do
          if actor.ID ~= self.ID then
               if SceneMan:ShortestDistance(self.Pos, actor.Pos, false).Magnitude < 10 then
                    self.Health = 0;
               end
          end
     end
end

The actor itself is always checked and is always less than ten pixels away. That is the problem none's script fixes.
