Additional Notes
- Activator is an entity directly responsible, and inflictor is an entity indirectly responsible. For example if a thrown crate hits a player and triggers the OnHurt output, then the activator would be the crate and the inflictor would be the player who threw it. If you don't know what to use, use the same entity for the activator and the inflictor.
- Unlike Entity:Fire, this can only be used on the server.
- Param can be a String , Float , or Integer .
- Param is optional.
