Help with fake invincibility

addHook("ShouldDamage", function(mo,inf,src)
	if (inf or src)
	or P_PlayerTouchingSectorSpecial(mo.player,1,1)
	or P_PlayerTouchingSectorSpecial(mo.player,1,2)
	or P_PlayerTouchingSectorSpecial(mo.player,1,3)
	or P_PlayerTouchingSectorSpecial(mo.player,1,4)
	or P_PlayerTouchingSectorSpecial(mo.player,1,5)
		return false
	end
end, MT_PLAYER)

This is the code I have. It's meant to make the player invulnerable to contact damage, projectiles and non-instakill damage sectors. It works, except when it comes to linedefs. For some reason, standing on lava functions fine but touching a lavafall or walking off of a lava FOF results in damage. Same with spike sectors (i know these are not to be used anymore i was just using an old map for testing) - standing on them works, walking off of them results in damage. Same with THZ's electric floors, etc.

As of 2.2, ShouldDamage hooks have a fifth function argument for damage types (target, inflictor, source, damage, damagetype). You may find it easier to block specific types or masks of damage rather than check for sector types. https://wiki.srb2.org/wiki/Constants#Damage.2FDeath_types_.28DMG_.2A.29

Yup, that works perfectly. Thanks for the save!

The code as it looks now, for anyone curious:

addHook("ShouldDamage", function(mo,inf,src,dmg,dmgtype)
	if (inf or src)
	or not dmgtype // (protects from generic-type damage sectors)
	or dmgtype == DMG_WATER
	or dmgtype == DMG_FIRE
	or dmgtype == DMG_ELECTRIC
	or dmgtype == DMG_SPIKE
		return false
	end
