Title: Your a dead tank! Stay dead!
Post by: dmakatra on 05 Jan 2003, 17:56:10: Hi! I have 2 AT soldiers lying in an ambush in an intro, and blows them in pieces. When the mission begins I want the tanks to be there (Cause the mission is to get back home in one piece) blown up and dead. If I use the "this setdammage 1.0" in the init field of the tanks, the tanks will explode after I have started the mission, making the player wonder what the hells goin on. Is there a way to put out "this setdammage 1.0" without the explosion? Plz help.

Thx in advance.
