Making a craft that can be destroyed by collisions

I've tried scripting a craft I had been working on to be able to be shot down (it's used for team-based training) but every time I try to get it right the persons(s) sitting in it seem to go over the collision limit... are there any tips or pitfalls I should know?

Thank you! :)

Try llBreakAllLinks() on a physical object. Results are fun!

Good luck!

You may want to filter out agent-caused collisions:
CODE

collision_start(integer count)
{
	if (llDetectedType(0) & AGENT) return;

	(your damage code here)
}

Be careful with that, if the vehicle is like most link sets, many of the prims interpenitrate (intersect) one another. Havok tends to either crash the sim or shoot them at high velocities when interpenitrating systems turn physical. To avoid this, unlink the set only after youve set it to phantom.

and that's why you would setpos everything away from everything else ;)

Thanks :)
