Dentable Vehicle

[Zoslis]

You could just assemble the vehicle out of multiple parts like the tank. Hood, wheels, roof etc. The one down side to this is it'd just be a bunch of bots, and we all know what happens when you have a ton of bots, that lovely thing shows up in the top right corner, looks a lot like this;
LAG

How about instead of ALL THOSE BOTS, just make a couple. At most, front, back, side, side.

You could do when it takes 50 dmg change the model to a damaged one then one for 75 then at 100 it'd explode like normal. Utterly pointless though.

He wants it to be more realistic. Say you hit the front with a bat, it would dent the bumper/make it fall off. Say you shoot a rocket at it, it'd knock off the front end and dink up the tires. It seems pointless, I do agree.

He didn't mention any of that unless I somehow missed a post.

He didn't exactly specify anything in OP, nor did he ever respond to the thread. But from everybody elses replies, I assumed that's what he wanted.

This is just a bad idea in general. If you want all this over realistic crap, go play a racing game. This adds nothing special to the game except more datablocks. It wouldn't even look right in blockland.

[BobSevenSevens]

I think what I said earlier would be the best option.

Could this be done by making a few datablocks (or models, not sure which) for the vehicle, then having the script run checks on the damage amount and changing the model if the damage drops below a certain level?

Checks would be once a second?

Also, 3 models: Regular, sorta damaged, really damaged?

Impossible.

At least, until Truce gets here.

Sooo true.
