Yeah, yeah, you will. It's working currently. I'm mostly using the ships when I'm testing it in my test levels. But yes, you're able to do it on ground vehicles as well. It's basically using the damage map system. So currently if you shoot a ship on the wing, you'll see a big hole on the wing. And we've expanded on that system. Without going into too much technical detail, we've made it more consistent so that players will see the same type of damage holes, and also made sure that you can't cheat with the damage map.

What do you mean, can't cheat?

Basically, we've moved it from the GPU to the CPU. I don't want to go too much into technical detail, but networking, basically. It works over the network now.

There was a big conversion that had to be done, that basically was showing what you were doing on a surface, and it would show for someone else. And yeah, it was a big tech hurdle early on that we had to try and get over.

It was client authoritative, and now we moved it up to the server.

Joes · Technical Designer, Actor Feature Team

Yes, exactly.
