Sinking cargo ship
I am stymied by the cargo ships: How do you destroy those suckers?
I've tried placing satchel charges all over the place, and shooting RPGs at various points on them, and grenading just about everywhere. Can anyone tell me the secret? Thanks, P |

the thing is some of them war boats can be blown up, but big cargo ships not so!
i really need to know what mission you talk about or the map name you play in!

William,
Thanks for taking the time to chat with me on this. I was stuck on several of the custom maps for DFX1/2 -- which I'm playing mostly on DFX2 (standard edition, no mods) -- for instance, Spinney's "Ice Station Zero". I slept on it and thought of something new -- applying explosives not serially but *in parallel*, i.e., simultaneous detonation of multiple charges. That did it. Don't know why I'd not tried that before... Cheers, P |

This is not the forum for DFX2 that is why William could not answer your question.

This way only one satchel charge would be neccesary.

Or my favourite, the c4 destroys a metal drum on deck that spreads to other drums
the ship is killed and teleported slowley to the sea bed....very realistic dave! |

Very coutious about what you mean ..... but the intention about what I mean is that a small group of destroyable objects can bring about the destruction of a larger object ( like a CARGO SHIP ) !!!

I would just create a few large explosions such as the large oil tank explosion partical affect, anything big enough to cover up the whole ship so you can't see it. also add lots of smoke. telleport the ship under water (as soon as the particle affects are triggering) just enough so that you can see the top of the crane sticking out a little bit.
when the particle affects and explosions clear, you'll see the ship sank. this way, you won't have to worry about creating some sort of sinking affect with telleports. lets face it, that would be a lot of work and still would look cheep. |

Just curious, but does the cargo ship even have a destroyed option ? I've not actually tried to destroy the Cargo Ship yet in DFX2. I know it worked in DFX , but idk what happens to the Cargo Ship in DFX2! Dave61

No, the DFX1 and DFX2 cargo ships are not destroyable ( I wish they were). that's why I was suggesting to use particle affects to mask the sinking of the ship...

you need to know were to place the satchel charges at.
i know some of the maps in the pass one had to place them inside the ship and other place under the ship, beside on top. should be a marker on the way point were to place the satchel charges at.

I placed an indestructible weapons crate on the deck and then set an event whereby a player placing a satchel in an area around the weapons crate renders it destroyable. You then blow the crate from a safe distance and trigger the other events (particle effects, other things exploding underneath and teleporting stuff etc). Works a treat! ;-)

That goes for me too. I googled "Maersk-Alabama" but just got news about the highjack. Where can we download that map? Come on MERMITE! You know you want us to play it!
