I haven't had time to advertise it yet, but this documentation link is now preferred: Artist Documentation

We've embedded the landing pages in the site, which makes it easier for me to modify/update them.

Main Documentation Landing Page

Then you can append the engine you want to link to:

/artist
/tge
/tgb
/tgea
/tx

Kind of, it's a bit tricky though determining from what direction an object impacted a player. There's some vector math in which you throw away everything but the Z, determine a relative movement speed and scale some damage based upon that speed.

@Michael, the page you linked to as the preferred page, is full of broken links and whatnot. (I've written this before but no one fixed it, no one saw my long post about it?)
