Props

Props are objects found on Maps that can be changed in a way unlike regular landscape and scenery. The following are objects found in Combat Arms maps that are classified as Props.

Ladders
Ladders are objects that are found in some maps. Like ladders in real life, they allow people to climb up and down to other levels of buildings. Ladders are often watched by snipers and passing people, for an enemy climbing ladders are quite showy. Players can still shoot on ladders, and before the 2-04-09 Patch, sprint on them to get up faster. There is a small problem when new players try to climb back down ladders, as they may get stuck on top. However, this can be fixed by Crouching, which makes the player automatically slide down the ladder.

Sliding Doors
Sliding Doors are workable objects in Combat Arms. Pressing E (default key) would open or close the door, allowing passage to what the door was blocking. They are currently only six sliding doors in the game, four in Snow Valley, two in Warhead. It is humorously noted that if two people are attempting to open the door at the same time, it would keep on opening halfway and then closing, making it really frustrating. These doors can be used as surprise attacks if one is aware that someone is on the other side (though it can be also a coincidence).

Garage Doors
currently only found in Rattle Snake

The Garage Doors are doors found in front of Bravo Point in Rattle Snake. They are partially like Sliding doors; though they need to be opened via switch box. These doors may take a while to open and close, plus the outer pair of Garage doors can be only opened and closed from the inside.

Destructible Objects
Destructible Objects are pieces of environments that can be destroyed by any weapon. They include wooden crate/boxes seen in almost every map, wooden barrels in Two Towers, and boarded-up windows in Two Towers also. They provide temporary cover and they do not respawn after being destroyed.

Some Objects are required to be there to get on top of something, such as a cargo box that's too high to be reached plainly by jumping. Gas Barrels are Destructible Objects, but they have another property.

Gas Barrels
Gas Barrels are kind of like Destructible Objects, though they have another property. They explode, damaging or killing anyone around them when they do. These green barrels are found in a few maps,like Junk Flea, useful to take down enemies if the player doesn't have an Explosive at the time. They don't spawn after exploding.

Players killed by the barrels would show their name next to a shot/half-exploded barrel symbol. The opposite team, in Elimination matches, would get a point if that happens.

Automatic Sliding Doors
currently only found in Death Room.

When you walk near it, The door opens without you haveing to press "E". This can be a bit annoying, as you cannot stand right next to the door without it opening. It is also a real pain that the doors close suddenly if another person tries to go through it a couple of seconds after the original person went through it already. Throwing a grenade through the doors--only to find it closed at the same time-- have been rather common.
