But, the max distance a player is able to fall down can be edited by developers. For your information, the max is -50000, though by default it is -500.
- LOCAL
Local damage is damage that can be caused by elements which can be modified by a place creator. You have to know that currently, only scripts can make damage. Local damage can be effected on humanoids by scripts by either applying the TakeDamage method, or by manually setting a humanoid’s health to a level lower than it was before. But, you have to note that doing TakeDamage method will not damage the humanoid if there is a ForceField present in the character. Then, if the health is set to 0 or less, so Died event will call.
