There is a Death Trap used in the Great Bend mission of the core campaign. It's the downed powerlines...you know, the ones that seem to invariably fry that melee 'bot... :lol:

But RfaSf, Death Traps are very handy for combat oriented maps. Weakened forcefield doors like in FO/FO2, electrified floors, molten metal in a smelter, all of these and more are possible w/Death Traps.

As for the RPG issue...well, FoT's not very well suited to it anyway. Something about being limited to diatribes instead of real dialogue that puts a real crimp in role playing. (Although, if some of you don't know, JJ86 did come up w/a work around for dialogue using a "yes" and "no" sprite assigned to Object entities that have click speech assigned to them. There's a topic devoted to it around here somewhere.)

Cheers again OTB I'll take a look at that mission for future reference.

I'll bear that in mind, for now I've decided to give up on this map, I want to reuse some of the buildings for something else, but once I've finished clipping them expect to see it appear at the gates of the graveyard sometime soon. There are just too many conversation strands and speech variables to keep track of.
