You want to make an actor that inherits from BasicACSDamager if you’re going to use any of the following scripts:

• ["core_propexplode"](<https://mm8bdm.notion.site/core_propexplode-6e51d65ed40b4df296e2eb22602801a6>)
• ["core_teamexplode"](<https://mm8bdm.notion.site/core_teamexplode-67a2da4f56624929a9bc1f08a650b847>)
• ["core_damageowner"](<https://mm8bdm.notion.site/core_damageowner-ce89c559ac0c4cf990e9c261dc3366a1>)
• ["core_damageactor"](<https://mm8bdm.notion.site/core_damageactor-ee0369fe773743bf83c80e877cb03593>)

When calling these scripts, a BasicACSDamager handles assignment of the damage source, as well as the obituary in the event of the damage resulting in a frag.

DECORATE Definition

<aside> 🚨 Wait! Stop! Before you copy this actor's definition into your mod, remember the following things:

• You do not need to copy this actor, since it is already defined.
• In fact, it's not just useless, it's actually harmful as it can cause problems.
• If you want to use it as a basis, using inheritance is the way to go.
• The actor definitions here are put on the wiki for reference purpose only. Learn from them, don't copy them into your mod. </aside>
