More than 2 available possible Corpses for units

As far as i understood, unit definitions define a corpse (say it is named "corpo").

Then, when a unit get's destroied, a function in the script is called with a parameter named "severity".

Then, we can check "severity" and choose a "corpsetype" scording to it. Hardcoded to:
Corpsetype=1 will spawn feature "corpo"+"_dead".
Corpsetype=2 will spawn feature "corpo"+"_heap".
Corpsetype=3 will not spawn anything.

That is, if i am understanding it correctly.

My point is, this is yet another example where the ability to spawn units from the scripts would solve limitations, allowing for more flexibility.
With the option to spawn units from scripts, we could check the parameter "severity" and choose one of how many diferent corpses as we would want, not just of 2 available corpses, since a unit can be a feature (like Dragon Teeths) meaning it could also be a corpse.

And because i could use more than 2 available types of corpses.

I think you understand wrongly.


Corpsetype=1 will spawn the feature whose name is after the "Corpse=" tag in the unit FBI
Corpsetype=2 will spawn the feature whose name is after the "featuredead=" tag in the section of the TDF that describe the first feature
Corpsetype=N will spawn the feature whose name is after the "featuredead=" tag in the section of the TDF that describe the feature (N-1)


The only case in which the names are used to link feature to units is when ressurecting units, and even then, that was only true in TotalA, not Spring.


BTW, I'm pretty sure there's already loads of units, especially buildings, that use more than 2 wrecks. So don't ask for features that have always been there and working and largely used, before even Spring was born.




Loosely related: There is a way to make the script branch into two, or more, feature threads, depending on whatever scripted condition. The trick is to make each thread follow the other, but have the last feature of each feature thread have both an indestructible=1; (as well as null footprints, null heigh, no object, not blocking, null density, etc...) and a featuredead=first_feature_of_next_thread; tag. This way only the script can jump from one thread from another, since you can't destroy/reclaim/see/etc.. the last feature of each thread.

Well, see my ArmDuck at Wormhole Prod for instance: when killed over water, it spawn non blocking feature, when killed over land, it spawn blocking feature. (Again, I think I tested it just in TA, not Spring, but bah)

See for example the Cavedogs (ARMAMB) Ambusher, that have 3 corpses, one for each position of the gun when it was killed, and the script that do it.
