Building Destruction

[sherman]

So how about repairing? Lets say stone building has inside 10 people and there is one attacker who is destroying building.Should they be able to prevent that somehow? Even if there is one dude he/she should be possible to atleast slowdown project. (Hmm.. pretty much like siege ... )

[Bmot]

What would a destroyed building do the the building numbers? Would other, later buildings just keep the same number, or would they get placed further up on the list? And, if the first is the case, would it be possible to build new buildings in the free 'slots'.

For example, you have these buildings:

1. Town center
2. Mud hut built by a stupid newspawn
3. Free resource shed that's really too small
4. Stone hall of majestic proportions
5. Person X's cottage

And building two would get destroyed, would it become like:

1. Town center
2. *free space*
3. Free resource shed that's really too small
4. Stone hall of majestic proportions
5. Person X's cottage

Or like:

1. Town center
2. Free resource shed that's really too small
3. Stone hall of majestic proportions
4. Person X's cottage

Or just like:

1. Town center
3. Free resource shed that's really too small
4. Stone hall of majestic proportions
5. Person X's cottage

I think building number will not change. So there will be gap.

[SekoETC]

Hopefully it will be possible to build in the gap.

They can go outside and kill him.

I would think destruction projects could be reversed to build projects, like any other project.

That could work but what if defenders can't do that? Shouldn't they be able to repair damage? Like on medieval siege in castle defender repaired damage what attacker did

So we could then roleplay full-scale renovations backed up by game mechanics.

I'm super excited for this, Can't wait for implementation!

[Slowness_Incarnate]

Yay we can get rid of those horrible mud huts with nothing in them!

And the 50 buildings in town not being used!

I'm working on it.
Building destruction (building -> ruins) will be done first, because disassembling many machines must be made available to make vehicle disassembling work.

There are some problems with it, though.
Project canceling will refund all used raws & objects, I've managed to make project canceling code work for projects in building. Old object repair system would fail to work correctly, but happily we have a new system there
Ruins of buildings are vehicles, so will be listed on vehicles, not buildings, list. It's obvious, but it still surprised me Fix to prepare b&v page for ruins will be done soon.

Let's just fill the buildings with gunpowder and explode them.

[Xander]

How is this coming along so far? I think it'll be a great boost to the game if we didn't have towns full of empty buildings that can't be removed.

I would really like to know too. I feel like this is an extremely useful feature that cantr is currently lacking.
