When it is shot an explosion decal appears on screen and pieces of it is scattered around.

If I take a random entity, makes it dynamic, set it's explodable member to "YES" and shots it, the explosion decal appears, but any pieces, instead it just disappears. Has this to do something with how the models are made up, or can this be solved in any way?

Best!

If you open the .fpe for cylinderC you will find directly below explodable =

debrisshape = 3 (debrisshape is self explanatory I believe there are 3 to choose from)


For some reason this field doesn't appear in the editor but you can add it to any .fpe for anything you want explodable by hand..The debris is pre-modeled but uses the texture of whatever entity is selected. So it appears to be debris from the exploded object.

I have been working on a fpe guide of sorts that explains what is what in a fpe file.

Here is a basic explanation I put together for it.

debrisshape = X - 0-no debris (default), 1,2,4-7 crates (see stock crates to determine the best one), 3,8 barrels (check with cylinderb and cylinderf to determine best) (used by crates and barrels)
