fragmentaion afetr hit

[DeanosBeano]

Hi all and ty in advance.
       looked for similar but couldnt find. What i am after is similar to the effect in ecp, where a tank is hit and pieces fly. i have made an addon but when it gets hit / destroyed ,it looks boring. i was hoping to delete the addon on destroyed and then have pieces fly of at random.

also does anybody know a great reffence for thins like ,destr types .etc for e.g destrType="Destructno"; etc . i am new to addons, been scripting for 4 years , pls excuse my noobness, and ty for any advice.

I am a bit pressed for time at the moment, but as for the DestructTypes,

Try  Models & ClassNames by yours truly here:

here are the destr types I could find

Code: [Select]

destrType="DestructEngine";
destrType="DestructBuilding";
destrType="DestructTree";
destrType="DestructTent";


You should be able to figure out what they do. But DestructEngine is the one where the thing will explode.

you can script those effects with an eventhandler.

check out grendel's k-kill scripts for example. (http://ofp.neco.cz/index.php?showthis=8526) afaik it uses the killed eventhandler with which you can trigger further drop command-based scripts then, or eject those pieces of debris from the tank.

the classnames of the debris are FXExploArmor1, FXExploArmor3 and FXExploArmor3 btw.

thanks all for the replies. much appreciated.
one other thing does anyone know ,where i can find the config for thr bis barrel in the ofp route ??

The entries from the game config is so:

Code: [Select]

class BarrelHelper:Thing
{
scope=0;
simulation="thing";
mapSize=0.7;
displayName="$STR_DN_BARREL";
accuracy=0.2;
transportFuel=100;
destrType=destructengine;
};

class BarrelBase:BarrelHelper
{
accuracy=1000; // Never recognize
armor=100;
cost=0;
};

class Barrels:BarrelBase
{
scope=2;
model="Barels.p3d";
displayName="$STR_DN_BARRELS";
transportFuel=400;
};

class Barrel1:BarrelBase
{
scope=2;
model="Barel1.p3d";
displayName="$STR_DN_BARREL_RED";
};

class Barrel2:BarrelBase
{
scope=2;
model="Barel2.p3d";
displayName="$STR_DN_BARREL_BROWN";
};

class Barrel3:BarrelBase
{
scope=2;
model="Barel4.p3d";
displayName="$STR_DN_BARREL_WHITE";
};

class Barrel4:BarrelBase
{
scope=2;
model="Barel3.p3d";
displayName="$STR_DN_BARREL_WHITE";
};


Barrel3................model=Barel4.p3d
and
Barrel4.................model=Barel3.p3d is NOT a mistake
