Actor Flags

Behaviour

• ALLOWCLIENTSPAWN

Spawns the actor on the clientside. This only works for things on the map startup, meaning it will not affect newly spawned actors.

• CLIENTSIDEONLY

Spawns the actor on the clientside no matter how it is spawned.

• NONETID

Actors with this flag are not assigned a network id when spawned. Only use it if you know what you are doing!

• DONTIDENTIFYTARGET

Players using a class with this flag enabled won't be identified when looked at.

• SCOREPILLAR

Used in conjunction with the flag to make the player score a point if he/she is holding the flag/skull item.

• SERVERSIDEONLY

The clients don't spawn such actors, only the server does. Therefore, spawning or manipulating these actors does not need network bandwidth. Only use it on actors that are always invisible and don't block the movement of players.

Inventory

• INVENTORY.FORCERESPAWNINSURVIVAL

Causes the item to respawn in survival, even if respawn items is off.

Weapons

• WEAPON.ALLOW_WITH_RESPAWN_INVUL

Allows the weapon to be used while in respawn protection.

• WEAPON.NOLMS

This weapon is not given in the Last Man Standing game mode.

• PIERCEARMOR
