Are you using multiplayer? If not, then why not create your own damage system.

• Create an enum, with all types of possible types of damages: Fire, Weapon, Crush, Rock, Punch, …
• Create an interface and a function wit inputs: damage type, damage value, …
• Add the interface to whathever is going to receive the damage
• The source of the damage sends message

Result:

Source of damage:

Thanks EvilCleric, however do you have any idea what I’m doing wrong. I totally agree this would work, however I need to show other people and it would be good to know the standard manner.
