Summary0002306: Debug build for the final as well enables a cheat not available in release
DescriptionNow this is my first time trying to use mantis. I find that the debug build of 3.6.12 for inf and standard allow constantly the ability to use the destroy subsystems cheat (~+SHIFT+K) that in the release builds is absolutely non-functional. I believe this can end up a HELP to FREDders as well as people who just stink at subsystem destruction. It may be a bug but its possible this is a good bug that could be usable.
Additional InformationI'm sorry again i don't know how else to report this The E suggested using mantis to bring this up and I have never been a part of using mantis before now. Hope this gets fleshed out maybe added to the release build for something

I do apologize about the format of how I did this but again first time using this.
So Is this a bug of some sort? i really am curious about this development.

I think I have tracked the cause of this down. Shiphit.cpp line 498 in do_subobj_hit_stuff() there is this:

#ifndef NDEBUG
    // Debug option. If damage is negative of subsystem type, then just destroy that subsystem.
    if (damage < 0.0f) {

So apparently even though debugging keys are enabled by default even in release builds the underlying code that kills the subsystem is still based on debug and.
