Fall damage is a type of damage that is only applied when a player falls from a certain height.
Fall damage is taken by a victim when the victim falls for more than a given distance and lands on a flat horizontal surface, and the damage received mostly depends on how far the victim has fell since the start of the jump. Landing while crouched will therefore increase Fall damage taken, and the player is thus calculated to have travelled further in this space of time. and is accompanied by a distinct bone crunching noise and blood particles being emitted from the legs for a brief time.
However, Fall damage can be cancelled by utilising a Double jump (or a Triple jump with the Atomizer or a Force jump with the Force-a-Nature) close to the floor, equipping the Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol, being airblasted away from the floor at an angle, or explosive jumping away from the floor with precise timing. The Mantreads can also offset fall damage from the user if they successfully land on an opponent, inflicting 3 times the fall damage that would've been taken by the wearer to the target, and the wearer will take no fall damage.
If a character dies whilst taking fall damage, including pitfalls such as the southern face of pl_upward will automatically result in death upon players landing in them, will display a distinct kill message in the kill feed, and awarding an assist to anyone who was attacking them at the time of death.
