Title: Special Explosions for Subsystems.
Post by: ShadowWolf_IH on February 28, 2003, 10:33:09 pm

I guess the title of the thread sums up what my question is about.  Giving subsystems special explosions, or being able to set off an explosion on a subsystem.  like say......engineering, having a bomb go off in engineering is never a good thing, especially when it blos out the engines and some of the exterior walls.  Just an example as a place where this might be useful.

so what do you guys think?

Subsystems do explode. Just not very dramatically (try launching a couple Stillettos at the next capship you see). And you can set them off in FRED already.

More interesting explosions would be something to work towards, though.

I think he means explosions that could damage you, or had shock waves

Thought the tables handled explosions.

yeah.....what bob said.....also, how do you set an explosion to go off on a subsystem, i know we can sabotage them, bring them to 0 percent, but as a fredder i should know how to make one pop.  can someone tell me what i am missing?  And actually i was asking for both, making them explode and damage you if you are too close.

Thanks guys.
