Armor system on Cars?

As I understand it, if you slap a tank in CDDA and do 1 damage to it, that 1 damage is applied, and in theory, you could smack that tank for a few hours and eventually knock the plating off the tank.

The armor system, the same one used by the player and monsters alike could prove useful. Flowers bitch-slapping your car would no-longer rip your headlights off, and it’d probably take more than one zombie to tunnel through a vehicle. Obviously the vehicle’s “Armor” rating would get better with the type of armor you strapped to it. Bone would probably protect from extra zombies slapping it, while Mil-Spec armor should probably stop just about any non-AP pistol round at range, and most rifle rounds at range with minimal, or even no damage done to the armor itself.

Your Military Composite Plating stops the 9mm round!

I’d like to look into this, but I know virtually nothing about the vehicle damage code. I’ve also got a few other things in the pipeline at the moment, but it’s at least on my to-do list. I always hated how damaging bushes are. I think Rivet already fixed flowers though.

You do not run into flowers anymore at all. You drive over them now and they do not colide.

Only thing i klnow bout my armored vehicle concerning dmg:

i had one with military plating.

I went to sleep in it with earplugs on cause a zombie was hitting the car waking me up … i just didn t feel like dealing with him .

when i woke up it was still there i went out killed it checked my car and saw that it wasn t dmg at all. not a scratch.
