Note: Wait! Stop! Before you copy this actor's definition into your mod, remember the following things: You do not need to copy that actor, since it is already defined. In fact, it's not just useless, it's actually harmful as it can cause problems. If you want to modify it, or use a modified version, using inheritance is the way to go. The actor definitions here are put on the wiki for reference purpose only. Learn from them, don't copy them. There is only one exception: if what you want is changing Ammo capacity, you need to create a new type from Ammo.

A Health item adds a certain amount to the player's health points. Items of this type are always effective when picked up. They cannot be placed in the inventory; to have health items in inventory, use HealthPickup. Health is never used directly. This class is only used as a base class for predefined items (like Doom's Stimpack or for items defined in DECORATE.

Using in DECORATE

Health items support all the basic Inventory properties. However, they use a few of them differently:

• Inventory.Amount value

Sets the amount of health this item gives when picked up.

• Inventory.MaxAmount value

Sets the maximum amount of health you can get with this item.

In addition they define one new property:

• Health.LowMessage value, message

When pickupper's health is lower than value, the pickup message is set to message.
