In my COG, I want it so that if the player is damaged, he falls from the ledge. Take a look at touched: and pulse:
As you can see, I'm using a pulse check to see if the player's health or shields change. It sort of works, but I need to get hit like 2 times before it knocks me off.
Any help would be great. Thanks.
