Possibly because the UTDMT are ScriptedPawns and the proxies do not explode when in contact with ScriptedPawns?
Actually they do, but those are Red Team Proxies with a Red Team UTDMT... so no KA-BLOOEY.

Maybe but I've never seen a proxy go anywhere near that high off the ground.

It was created by GorGor (who I can't find anywhere) and the map it was 1st on was DM-Titania. A great map where there's 1 UTDMT at the very bottom in a pit.
Hence why many of the default messages for the thing say variations of "come down here".
Although given the configuration options built into the UTDMT it's clear it was also intended to be used for team games, which I do edit it into. Even before I started skinning and editing the thing into maps, there were about a dozen existing ones (though none of them skinned) out there. Even one of the JailBreak gametype I no longer use.

JackGriffin expressed a recent interest, so I'm hoping he might be open to taking the UTDMT and creating SkaarjBerserker, Queen, and/or Warlord versions... though I'd prefer based on the original template, and not the (no offense) more recent version with the .ini file you did up.
