Trivia

Bear Traps seem to do either varying amounts of damage or having certain entities that they can one-shot, as for whatever reason they can do 115 damage to the Alpha Wolf, instantly killing them, but they can't kill a Cultist that has 100 hp, doing only 50~ damage. Even stranger, the Bear Trap deals enough damage to take off a quarter of a bears hp (350), which makes less sense due to a bear being stronger then an individual Cultist. The Bear Trap also only does about 5-10 damage to the player, breaking the logic even further. Bear Traps can be dragged around after being set off, allowing for repositioning of the trap. Being killed by your own Bear Trap is humiliating, especially so when they do greatly reduced damage to players. It even gives you an achievement for it that awards you 4 diamonds. can kill enemies by luring them to them while having a line at your fire`s bit out range if you have skill issue
