Suggestion for modders/modellers
Paragon came up with it... it goes along with the non-targetable destroyable subsystems dealy. Say you make a new model, a capital ship. We'll use the Deimos in this instance. You know how in Bob's Deimos, you can see through the 'glass' to the hallway behind it? Well, say you had a cluster of little tiny people models behind the exterior glass part. What if it was a non-targetable subsystem, and you blew it up, and the people came flying out as if the hull were destroyed in that area? That'd be cool as hell.
Wh00t!? Vinyl? Is it like an I-pod 2 or something?

You'd need a debris LOD for each subobject.

I think I understand what you mean, but could you be a little more specific?

Debris for a ship is created from a special LOD with the various textured pieces of the ship.

In order to have debris for a subsystem, you'd have to define a similar LOD so FS2 would know what to get rid of and what to make float around.

Further than that you'll have to ask Bobb.

you really like to complicate things, folks.
you make those people as separate pofs, and do something like that:
when subsystem meatbag destroyed
->spawn N corpseXX.pof ( N, number of corpses, XX, random number, picks any corpse pof, something like that).

Sorry for the crappy atempt at code mimic, i'm no coder :p
SCREW CANON!
