Post by: Unknown Target on February 21, 2002, 10:04:00 am: Is it possible to get them to be automatically be destroyed when something happens in-mission? Or how about a FRED 2 SEXP?

Mecha is very cool. Evangelion isn't. But Venom and I have argued this one out. Search the forums. ;) It was meant as a joke gang.

Back to his original question - no

Debris is not tracked as a valid object, it is created and then runs on its own in a strait line with whatever rotation on it until it times out. The timeout is the only way to destroy debris other then actually targeting it with your primary or secondary weapons.
