How do I do it? I can't get it working.

I'm pretty sure only certain classes of objects can have health properties. Compare the .odfs of a few objects that have health and a few that don't so you can get an idea of how you need to set up the .odf for whatever object you're trying to edit.

I'm trying to edit dea1_prop_hack_panel. It originally has health, but it is just an object ingame.
Here is it's ODF:

Hidden/Spoiler:

[GameObjectClass]       

ClassLabel		= "destructablebuilding"

GeometryName    	= "dea1_prop_panel.msh"

[Properties]        

GeometryName    =   "dea1_prop_panel"

MapTexture = "rechargedroid_icon"

MapScale        = "1"

UnbuiltHoloOdf = "com_holo_build"

GeometryName	=	"dea1_prop_panel"

UnbuiltGeometryName   = "dea1_prop_panel"

--DestroyedGeometryName   = "dea1_prop_panel"

MaxHealth       = 300

//AttachOdf = "mus1_light_panel_red"

//AttachToHardPoint = "hp_light"

//AttachEffect = "prop_panelspark"

//AttachToHardPoint = "hp_panel"

Do I need to activate it's health or something?

You could try replacing the ODF with that of dea1_prop_panel. But it's just a guess, I don't know a whole lot about coding.

Hmmm....
I got the oil refinery working, so I think I'll switch it's model to the panel and lower it's health. Though a crude way to fix it, it should work.

a destructible object needs a appropriate class (destructablebuilding or armedbuilding etc)
and line that defines the health i think

He had both of those.

Oh, and what is this?

--DestroyedGeometryName = "dea1_prop_panel"

That's not how you comment out lines in an odf. Remove the double dash (and don't comment this line out, you need a DestroyedGeometryName).
