Penetration damage on garrisonable structures

Penetration damage on garrisonable structures

• Warheads can now damage garrisoned infantry at impact.
• PenetratesGarrison Enables the logic.
  • PenetratesGarrison.RandomTarget specifies if the damage will go at some random garrisoned soldier or if all infantry should be damaged at the same time.
  • PenetratesGarrison.DamageMultiplier can be used to modify the damage applied against the garrisoned infantry. A random percentage value will be picked between the specified range.
  • PenetratesGarrison.CleanSound can be used to specify a sound to play when the structure lost all the garrisoned soldiers with this logic.
  • PenetratesGarrison.Allowed can be set on garrisonable buildings to protect the garrisoned infantry, or used on garrisoned infantry to make them not be affected by this logic.

In rulesmd.ini:

[SOMEWARHEAD]                                 ; WarheadType
PenetratesGarrison=false                      ; boolean
PenetratesGarrison.RandomTarget=true          ; boolean
PenetratesGarrison.DamageMultiplier=1.0,1.0   ; floating point value - single or comma-sep. range (percentages)
PenetratesGarrison.CleanSound=                ; sound entry

[SOMETECHNO]                                  ; TechnoType
PenetratesGarrison.Allowed=true               ; boolean

Reopened because I finally tested it online and is free of desyncs.

Isn't it similar to Ares Pass Through? https://ares-developers.github.io/Ares-docs/new/buildings/urbancombattrenches.html
though, Ares did it through projectiles and buildings...

There were some issues with that garrison logic that i do not remember right now, and this feature here might allow for better control over what can get cleared and what not.
If anything, this one is much more intuitive.

suggest to change these tags' names into PenetratesGarrison, to keep consistent with the already exists PenetratesBunker tag

[Coronia]

the damage part should be done by a proper ReceiveDamage function, or it'll create various of issues in edge cases

I still don't understand what is suggested, I need to hook inside ReceiveDamage and apply this damage to kill infantry?

[Coronia]

You need to do the damage through ReceiveDamage, instead of doing so by just reducing HP. Otherwise there'll be leftover things to handle manually which can be risky

[FS-21]

probably is done

[fagonghaiwo]

[SOMETECHNO] ; TechnoType
PenetratesGarrison.Allowed=false ; boolean

maybe default value is true

[FS-21]

[SOMETECHNO] ; TechnoType PenetratesGarrison.Allowed=false ; boolean

maybe default value is true

Yes, the first message is very old. I'll update the first comment but always go to the documentation that must be updated to reflect what does the game tags
