It's for a TSAR BOMBA mod.

no offense but that seems stupid as hell...

might as well call it the "actor wipe" bomb, since it has no resemblance to a real tsar bomba.

though I know GetPlayerBrain works for human players, I'm not sure whether it works for AI brains

you could try MovableMan:GetUnassignedBrain

You can use actor:IsInGroup("Brains") to check.

actually I would be up for an "actor wipe" device, just don't call it a "tsar bomba"

would be quite useful for the laggy times

This'll gibs all non-brain actors on the map (assuming there're no typos or anything). If you want to specify team or range you have to add a bit more but it's really pretty simple.
Code:
for actor in MovableMan.Actors do
   if not actor:IsInGroup("Brains") then
   --can also be if not actor:HasObjectInGroup("Brains") then since I'm pretty sure hasobjectingroup counts the actor too.
      actor:GibThis();
      --can also be actor.ToDelete = true; if you want the actor to disappear or
      -- actor.Health = 0; if you want the actor to die without gibbing.
   end
end

I'd call it the overload bomb because anything that doesn't have the brain power of a brain gibs all over the place.

Yes it does, I just checked by testing it and it works fine. If you don't know how to attack a script to something don't blame me.
More specifically for a bomb you'll want:
Code:
function Create(self)
end
function Update(self)
end
function Destroy(self)
      for actor in MovableMan.Actors do
         if not actor:IsInGroup("Brains") then
         --can also be if not actor:HasObjectInGroup("Brains") then since I'm pretty sure hasobjectingroup counts the actor too.
            actor:GibThis();
            --can also be actor.ToDelete = true; if you want the actor to disappear or
            -- actor.Health = 0; if you want the actor to die without gibbing.
         end
      end
end

If lucariokiller is unable to use simple Lua then he wouldn't know you had to enclose it in the destroy function.

Yeah, fair enough, I suppose I should have thought about that. Create or update would have done something too so I can only assume he just placed it straight in there. Anyway, problem solved either way I hope.
