Description

Description:
Allow or prevent an object being damaged (or injured, or killed). The command does not prevent object from taking scripted damage such as setHit, setHitIndex, setHitPointDamage or setDamage. To check if damage is allowed at current locality, see isDamageAllowed.
Multiplayer:
The command has to be executed where the object is local and will be effective as long as the object does not change locality. If the object changes locality, the command needs to be executed again on the new owner's machine to maintain the effect.

_object allowDamage false;
has the same effect as
_object addEventHandler ["HandleDamage", {0}];
except for buildings that are native to the map; for those, the effects of HandleDamage will not sync properly across all clients, even if added to the building on every client and the server.
