How It Works​

When an object is undisturbed for several seconds, the game's physics engine and collision detection system ignore it. Such ignored objects are not affected by Man Cannons, or even gravity itself (but will be affected by Grav Lifts). If, however, these objects are touched or hit by some force (be it a player, a bullet, an explosion, or anything else), then they stop being ignored and Man Cannons and gravity once again begin to affect them.

Demonstrations​

1. Simple Scenery Trap

Create the wire by laying down "Moveable" objects right next to each other so they are "touching".


Now place the "Shell" around the wire so its hidden (view from above)


Connect another movable object (a pallet in this case) to the end of the wire that sticks out of the shell.


Now create scenery against the object sticking out of the shell and make sure they're all touching

(Player view of scenery at the end of the wire. The rocket launcher marks the start of the wire)


Finally set a man cannon or two behind the wall with scenery angled towards the player.
Then set these man cannons to NOT spawn at start and give them a respawn rate of 10

(Before 10 seconds)


(After 10 seconds, trap is ready)


Then you can watch your friend get pummeled by scenery when they try to pick up the rocket launcher
