For years now my ships have taken more hits than I'd like. After a while I became quite proud of some of the survivors, but none of them showed where they'd been... no battle scars, no visible ill effects from death defying fleet encounters or L5 solo mission escapes. And I wanted so much that people could look at my ship (instead of my bio) and see just how bad-ass hard-ass and flat out tough I had to be to fly a ship that looked like it had 'been there'...
Instead of the token burst of flame as your hull burns and you limp into a station, wouldn't it be way cooler... and way more realistic to actually see the carbon smeared and scorched debris of a ship smashed almost to the limits of its integrity?
Wouldn't it be cooler to select variable levels in the repair bay, from Pristine (full repair wax and polish) to Perfect Body (structural repair only with the visible scars of combat retained for veteran chic gruesomeness)?
Anyway, that's what I want and the vid shows some open source that could let it happen.

I'm not sure how that phisics mod would help eve do ship damage. plus, as is the killer of many of these cool ideas, think of the stress it would put on the servers? having to keep track of the visual damage on each ship, and relay that damage out to everyone reguardless of weather they have locked you or not. other than that, the video was neat, but one thing that got to me was that the wall seemed to be perfectly invincible. |
