Try a point_velocitysensor paired with a logic_compare, if the player's velocity is 0, enable the trigger which covers the entire room. There's likely a better way to do it but that's what I'd try.

this should give you an idea of how it could work

📎 velocitysensor.vmf

#

i'm not sure a velocity sensor is exactly the best way to go about it though since it only measures one axis and if you're travelling in the opposite direction if it's OnLessThan it will always activate

#

since you have negative speed against the axis

#

you can circumnavigate this but the way i found to do that was obtuse

#

i guess you could just say if they have greater than x speed then DONT damage them and that'd be fine
