Insanity Area? - Thesus - 10-16-2010

What does the Insanity area type do, and what can it be used for? The wiki doesn't talk about it.

I think it makes you hear voices or has bugs crawl over your screen if your sanity is lower than some specified value.

The insanity area activates no matter your sanity level. You just need to set the appropriate strings in your .hps file for it to work correctly. Of course if you wanted it to only activate when your sanity is at a specified amount, you could probably change that in your script file.

By simply setting a insanity area without scripting i know through tests that is activates when your sanity is bellow 30, and cause a random insanity effect, like hearing stuff.
These events have a cooldown so they don't spam.

If you search the forum this question has been posted before and i have a detailed answer there.
