Structures that can be destroyed ??? why?

[TheWobble]

I made a map and when playing it in off line mode i tried to bomb a hangar, and it wouldent die. what is the deal with this, none of the structures on the map can be killed accept for gun emplacements.  What am i doing wrong?

Are you setting there Object type or just leaving them void? Also there is a can collide button that needs to be set to make objects bombable.

wow, nice to hear from ya!

um, i use the prefabricated groups
I.E. "small airfied"  or the refinery fields.

I made sure objectprotect wasnt on. 0 is off right? or is it 1?  AAGGHH!

DEFAULT DAMMIT!

On those prefabs the "can collide" is not set, do i need to set that for every object that i want to be affeted by bombs?  cause that would take a long while....Unless there is a way to set everything destructable..


I usually use the medium airfield groups.
I am finally getting this editor down pretty well, but this one has thrown me for a loop. please help.

HiTech,

I made a test to see what is wrong. here is the data.

 Arena settings : DEFAULT

target was in an airfield  AFMed-1 (prefab group)

target data:
Shape Name: Hangar2
Object Name: F01FTH0
Object Type: Ftr Hgr
Can collide:  depressed (yes?)
Set to terrain: depressed (yes?)
ID:0
Group ID:0
Object Data:0
Downtime: -1.000
Point Value: -1
Hardness: -1.000

Dropped 2 1k bombs directly on target
Status: UP

turned around and dropped remaining 4 1k bombs with at least 3 directly hitting the target
Status: UP

What s the deal with this? PLEASE help. I have no idea what could possible be wrong.

OK  I solved the problem with the ground targets being invincable.  HOWEVER  NOW whenever a bomb hits an object located on the field the runway and the ground texture of the field vanishes... any thoughts? it only does this with maps i have made with the editor.

[TheWobble]

OK,!

Well i fixed the problem with the runway vanishing,  the proble was that i had set thae land at sea level was at set alt of 0, so when the bombs hit they skewed the terrain to the point to which he texture disappears, kinda like when ya put a field on a uneven surface.  ok well as soon as i figure the filter out its done.

What was the invincable problem?

For some reason the editor defaulted to "cannot collide" setting so EVERYTHING on the map was like that, I reinstalled the editor and that fixed it.
