For a mod I'm working on, I'm stuck trying to figure out how to spawn a rocket or dropship with their door open. Or even spawn and then really quickly open their hatches. In build 19, this could be easily and consistently done by spawning the ship with something inside, so it would open. With the gibbing of ships, things have become more difficult for some reason. Any ideas? |

Try variations of the status variable? Or status = 3; it'll die instantly, and open the hatches up. Beyond that, no ideas, sorry. Make sure you're giving it all the relevant "parts" as well, i.e. legs, thrusters, etc. In B18 that stopped rockets from opening up. |

Yeah, it's just the problem now is that since they explode or simply disappear upon death, that doesn't work anymore. That's what I was doing in B19, though. Frustratin'. |

Does it still happen if you just remove all the gibs? If so, and it's the cargo gibbing out, I don't really think it can be helped until (or if) Data adds a Scuttles = 0 variable. |

Yeah. Status is almost useless now. All you can do with it is make the rocket explode instantly. You can't even make them return anymore. |
