Actors that can be hurt, coupled with this flag, are capable of taking damage from slime/hellslime/super hellslime sectors just like the player is if they don't have the ironfeet powerup.

I know, it's possible to modify existing maps to have monsters hurt from SectorDamage, but I wanted to make it a bit easier than having to open up the maps and creating ACS scripts for every one of them/giving sector tags...

The big obstacle is that these two different types of damaging floors work completely differently. Normal sector damage is based on a function named PlayerInSpecialSector(), which is only called when a player is in a special sector. SectorDamage, on the other hand, works on every actor in the sector (as appropriate depending on flags used), but only when it is called.

Even A_CheckTerrain only works when it is specifically called.

Even worse, since monster AI doesn't know anything about damaging sectors this will only result in very dead monsters very quickly.

Well, kinda like crushers.

[Graf Zahl]

Except that crushers don't do damages permanently. Monsters can get through them unhurt and they block passage for some intervals. But a damaging floor would just be considered free passage by the monster AI.

A SectorDamage script works well enough for me. (Using 3D liquids, deep enough that they won't try to step in... But they can be kicked in, which is awesome.)
