| Summary | 0000179: SEXP problem: is-subsystem-destroyed-delay | ||||
| Description | This should be simple to fix. Is-subsystem-destroyed-delay is no longer working quite properly. It used to be that if either the specified subsystem or the ship hosting the specificed subsystem were destroyed, the sexp would return true. Now if the ship is destroyed before the subsystem, the sexp remains incomplete. This creates all sorts of problems for gameplay. | ||||

You sure, Sesq? I thought it was like this all along. Example: Bearbaiting, when you're destroying the Beleth's beam cannons. If the Beleth is destroyed, the "destroy beleth beam cannons" goal is not automatically satisfied. Addendum: I just looked at the code... according to CVS, is-subsystem-destroyed has never been modified over the history of the SCP. edited on: 04-26-04 15:04 |

Really? Hmm. Well, I've been known err before. However, I think it _should_ work this way. The subsystem is destroyed, after all. |

Yeah, but it's an assumption. Keeping it the way it is allows more flexibility in designing missions. And if the mission designer relies on this, it's best not to interfere. It's a simple matter to add an or sexp with is-destroyed-delay if that's what's desired. That's what was done in the FS1 mission "Reaching the Zenith". Closing as invalid. |
