In my planes such as my dc-10 I will be flying and hit something, say another plane, and normally it will just break the wing, but, since the wings are caused in fuselages, the explosion traces down the piece of fuselage then causes the entire plane to explode, but with planes like my bombardier dash-8 that don't have fuselage casings, it just breaks the wing, I don't think, that if a single piece of a fuselage explodes, it traces down all of the fuselage and explodes, I think this would make for much more realistic crashes and wing breakage
@Flightsonic yeah, but if something happens say, I full speed ram into a hangar, the plane just loses the front half of the fuselage, however, if I hit a mountain at full speed the entire plane disinigrates, I think that needs to be changed a bit
@FrankieB The break points are iffy, but all they have to do is reduce the explosion force of parts breaking to 0, then tell parts destroyed by a part not to explode
@Flightsonic but yeah, adding different break points and removing fuselage and non-engine related explosions shouldn't be that hard
@Flightsonic oh, I didn't know that was its name
@FrankieB Okay you knew about it, the official name is Cthulhu
@Flightsonic oh, the sea monster?
@FrankieB You have the beta correct?
@FrankieB take off from Yeager and follow a heading of 067
@FrankieB You'll find out shortly (are you fine with spoilers?)
@Flightsonic what is Cthulhu
@FrankieB I mean they added Cthulhu, it shouldn't be too hard
@Flightsonic yeah, good point, something that should exhaust though is fire, say you scraped the fuselage on the mountain, and the heat caught the engine on fire but good point
@FrankieB If it's contained, but technically it shouldn't (Flame up and burn... yes) If it's a hard enough hit to cause a fracture (what would cause an explosion), the pressure would escape
@Flightsonic yeah, but I think certain parts, such as fuselages that have fuel in them, since ya know, fuel can, kinda explode
I think it would be fixed by just removing part explosions (besides engines) altogether
