Self Damage
« on: January 13, 2010, 09:08:45 PM »
I was just thinking about this while creating another video. It would be awesome if we could do self damage to our planes. IE, .damageflaps then your flaps would fall off..

This would help out a TON with us film makers that try to re-create scenarios in our films. To have planes take damage on command and be specific to the area of damage.

This function of course would be disabled in the MA, but possibly in the DA or TA.

Theres another plus, lets say you want to train in a damaged aircraft to improve your skills, this would be a way to do so..say your not too hot fighting with oil on your canopy...go to the TA/DA and damage your oil and start fighting. Same with Ailerons, Rudder, one engine out in the p38..

What do ya'll think?

Couldn't you hit "shift 1" then hit "E" to shut off the left engine...or hit "shift 2" for the right?

If your doing this online have a buddy fly with you and shoot him.  It might take a few tries but I bet you can get the desired effects...kill shooter CAN be your friend!

To think that statistics show that home schooled children on average perform better than kids that go to public school.
