Does "damage report" still work?

[WWSitttingDuck]

Been trying to find a balance between factories that are not too easy to destroy, and yet not too hard.

 

Placed 4 identical factory objects on a map.  Set the durability of the first to 99, the second to 75, the third to 25 and the last to 1.  Have an "on damaged" linked to a subtitle for each block.

 

In a 109f4 with puny 50kg bombs, I get the same result on each of the 4 blocks if i drop a small bomb close to the same building in each one.

 

Have tried both threshold and step with the same results.  The first bomb triggers the on damaged and the subtitle

 

Have tried both on damaged, and on killed, with the same results.

 

Have even mixed up the blocks.  Tried some oil storage units, some corner industrial blocks, and some warehouse blocks, even the big industrial_block_zavodcement, all with the same result. One 50kg bomb on the same building in each block triggers an on damaged no matter if the damage report is set to 1 or 99.

 

If I understand damaged report correctly (thanks JimTM),  If I have damage report set to 99 and in step,  then I should not be getting a subtitle until 99% of the block is damaged.

Given that the default durability for a factory is 25000, I'm not sure if a durability of 99 would stand up to a 50kg bomb. Others who have done a lot of damage testing may have some good suggestions. Here's a couple of posts that discuss the durability issue. I'll try and come up with some ballpark recommendations for the next edition of the manual.

Re. the "step" damage settings and 99, 75, 25, and 1 damage values, you get a message each time another 99%, 75%, 25%, and 1% (respectively) of the factory is damaged.

my bad, did not mean durability set to 99/75 etc, should have said damage report....

Right, but I am getting the exact same results with one small bomb on a block set to 99% as I am on a block set to 1%, and I know I am not getting 99% damage with one bomb.  Well, at least I HOPE i am not getting 99% damage on a large factory with a 50kg bomb....

What's the durability for the factory?

 

Can you post your mission (or even a small test mission) please.
