You can simulate slow downs by using an 'opposite' boots script:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
if (playertouchsme) {
  slowing = 10;
  timeout = 0.05;
}

if (timeout) {
  if (slowing > 0) {
    for (i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
      if (keydown(i)) {
        playerx += vecx(i) * -0.5;
        playery += vecy(i) * -0.5;
      }
    }
    slowing -= 0.05;
    timeout = 0.05;
  }
} 


In GS1 you should always use this. variables when referring to weapon or NPC-local variables because of the way scope works on the older clients.

i.e. even a forloop with i as an iterator can cause issues if i is used elsewhere in any NPC. You should use this.i.

You can only change the players speed in GS2

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerTouchsMe() {
  player.defaultwalkspeed = 0.75;
} 


By default the speed is 0.5

I think I had a little bit too much fun with player.defaultwalkspeed just now....
