My first thought for that would be that Scrap can't own terrain... make sure the building doesn't have a terrain__h, or use

[GameObjectClass]
ownsTerrain = 0

[mrtwosheds]

Scrap is scrap, buildings are buildings, if you want a building to be scrap, shoot it...

[TheJamsh]

didnt work anyway

f*cked up because scrap gets tossed all over the place

cbf with it, just going to tap a frikkin m-curtain instead

[bigbadbogie]

thats the only way to do it unfortunately

[TheJamsh]

yeh tis a shame becos i was going to destroy the shield generator separately. me and Zero had a few ideas but none worked.

all i can say is be prepared for a starship onslaught when i work out how to do these badboys =]

[OvermindDL1]

You could just have the dll replace the building with a new version of itself with the shield part of it is destroyed, thus that would restore the physics functionality of it so you can actually hit the building then at that point.  Could probably do something similarish with vehicles...

Let me make sure I have this straight...

You want a 'shield' that surrounds a building that can be destroyed by shooting it...  such that the 'shield generator' is destroyed when the shield takes enough of a hit.

It has to fit the building, though, it can't be a box or bubble?

[General BlackDragon]

i'd imagine a bubble  could work well, but i think he wants a shield render like scion shields for it too....mmmm

[TheJamsh]

no i DO want the bubble... you know how the scion shields look? i want that on a building, simple as..

i jutt want the effect you get when its shot, the ripple thing using the bulhit.tga texture

[General BlackDragon]

well

if u JUST want the effect...hmm

i know buildings CAN use scion style shields....

[Red Devil]

The Force shield has a nice effect.

[TheJamsh]

yeh but you dotn get the ripples when you shoot it do you? thats the prob
