Is it possible to destroy an object and link it to destroy a non destroyable object? Or do I need to make them all destroyable.

Welcome to gametoast!

Yeah it sounds possible. I'm thinking you could just use the killobject command to get rid of it, then the spawnobject command to spawn the rubble/destroyed looking object. Then just add an effect to be played at the same time and it will look like the prop has been destroyed. This might be a bit hard to do if you're just getting started on modding, and i'd recommend starting somewhere else.

Thanks for the welcome. I bet I could figure it out because I don't need to have anything respawn, and I have been nodding for a few months.

You could try using an ammo droid for a base of what to do but idk if you want to be able to repair it or not.

I don't see what you mean, but it can't be repaired.

Are you talking about something like if you destroy all the turrets (destroyable objects) then the ship (non-destroyable in some cases) blows up and goes away? That was just a very basic example.

No, what I am doing is having an orbital strike ( which I have working) act as Death Star laser to destroy the ship. Right now, just the part of the ship over the hanger is destroyed so I need to link it to the other parts.

He really wants to just use the stock "LinkedDestroyables" script (how to use is shown in stock space assault scripts). LinkedFrigates is basically the same thing, but the linkage is defined by only one object blowing up. He wants it so that - I assume - if any part of the ship is destroyed, the entire thing will be destroyed.

It also sounds like his "ship" is something stationary he placed in ZE - so just using the stock frigate linkage script ought to be enough, I think. It would only need to be defined by one object blowing up.
