Crew Health/Damage

FatCat · 08-06-07, 07:19 PM

Does anyone know if there is a way to modify the Crew health/damage model so it's a little more realistic?

Welcome FatCat. I couldn't possible say but if compared to SH3 format then the SH4 model is much more complicated.

Well mate - describe what you think "realisitic" is. Not saying that what we have is realisitic, but damage is moddable in a number of ways, so some tweaking could be done. Just need an idea of the direction you want to take it.

I like the current model, but am interested to hear what you have to add, options are nice

I'd like the deck crew to be wounded or killed if hit by 20/25mm cannon fire.

You can parked next to a ship armed with AAA guns, and they will put a zillion rounds into the sub, all over, and the deck crew doesn't blink, much less get hurt.

No one ever dies or even gets close until the boats sunk. I don't think I've had a crew member get below 50% heath in 3 careers. I'd just like to tweak it so I have a little more incentive to keep hidden.

Just a thought here:

I looked at the files and can't see anything to make the crew any less resilent to being pounded by AA fire. But I was thinking...

What if we reduced the Health Value from a default of 100 to something more like 40-50 and were able to make the sim think that that was a normal max? That way, when they crewmen do get wounded, there'll be a lot less points they can lose before they are KIA.

Just an idea. Not familiar enough with the system to know if it's viable.
