I've done some design work to make sure there's a clean path to dealing with damage in the game.

The design is being implemented in the damage branch.

The basics are done.

Basially every damagable object needs to explose a take_damage() method that will let all necessary information be carried over. THe object can the ndecide what to do - how to react, what audio-visual effects to produce etc.

The Player class will spawn blood effects and play the sound of a bullet hitting flesh. For now the damage type is not really evaluated, as we only have one damage type.

However - when fall damage becomes a thing, the player will inflict damage onto themselves!

And appropriate effects shoudl follow.

As for objects that don't have a take_damage() method - for now Weapon.gd will spawn a generic bullet hit effect. later we should somehow define how level geometry can define what type of material it is and hence - how should it react to various types of damage.
