when should a trap trigger?


3.5/d20/OGL


OK so this mostly applies to multi target traps. For instance let's say I have a 20x20 pit trap that triggers when when a pressure plate in the middle is stepped on. Should I trigger it as soon as someone steps on it or after everyone moves that round.

See I feel like multi target traps only hit the first person who moves per round even if the party realistically was walking side by side.

Has anyone done this where they basically see what everyone attempted to do and after its all said and done then they trigger traps.
