Make hitting your own teammates hurt a little, never ruin the run

If teammates can hurt each other, careless shots turn into arguments, and if they cannot, explosions feel fake. A middle path needs a few exact rules for who takes how much, when it must not kill, and what to do about a player who keeps doing it. Here is a set that keeps both fun and tension.

Why this works

A mistake should teach, not ruin. A small penalty that cannot end someone's run keeps shots and explosions meaningful, and a visible tally turns a one-off accident and a bad habit into two different things the team can talk about.

When not to use it

Skip it in a relaxed game for children or newcomers, where hurting a friend only frustrates, and in a game where hitting teammates is the whole point. In the first, switch it off; in the second, make the damage full.
