I am familiar with way things work in the commercial IT world GSH. I used to be a Software tester... (this is a ... with real unspoken meaning!)

I was wondering about that.  Just having it shoot off lots of little ordnances with explosions, kinda like the splinter mortar thingy I made.

Actually if you look at many game engines there is no such support for things like that, they usually fudge it by having the death of something spawn other little things that have no mesh, but who's life ends after a delay and will cause other effects to happen at time delayed sets.

Looking at the code, explosions last two turns (1/10 second at default). First turn, they go boom. Second turn, they get deleted. Harder to chain anything with that.

are we basically talking about delaying effects from when the explosion begins stored in the same explosion file?

GSH, you must love this game to stick around so much =D
