Hole

s are a hazardous object and trap in. Any NPCs or Items that fall into a hole will disappear forever. Players receive 30 damage instead from falling into it. If a mission item, key, or safe combination falls into it, the item spawns nearby the player after a short delay (with the notable exception of Mayor's Hat).

= Notes =
 * This effect overrides post-death events such as Resurrection and Zombified. NPCs affected by such will still disappear forever if they fall into the hole.
