First New Custom Story----Beneath the Ice!

[Kreekakon]

I do intend the player to be on the ground, as I want him/her to explore around and in the city. I was thinking of changing the gravity or the fall damage in the config file. What would those do in comparison to the kill player script?

Well, your title says custom story, so I assume you're making one of those. I don't have much experience with this, but I know that if you want to change values like that, you'll need a full conversion.

Also, using a kill player script can be more specific as to what you want the game world to be like. Like for instance if you wanted the player to fall a similar amount of height , and NOT die, the values changed in a FC would hinder that.
