100% dismantle Achievements?

[Twinsen]

In SGS1 90% dismantle Achievements were introduced quite after the launch.

Are there similar plans for SGS2?

I don't see how you could look at how SGS2 is designed and think that is something that is possible or desirable.

I've 100% every ship I've touched, working on the 3rd from last ship by size. A 100% scrapped achievement would be great. I love having rare achievements.

100% scrapping would be nice. I'm fine with it being like, internally a 99% or something to give leeway for parts flying off into space or whatnot, but at least say "you don turned this ship into an empty spot, yo."

THIS PLEASE!!! I've 100% scrapped EVERY SHIP beyond the tutorial ship, which of course is impossible to 100% because the crane isn't available so you can't lift away the bare hull to the warehouse.

Should be considered 100% dismantled when you've craned away the total superstructure.

True! Good idea, because you can't move it until everything else is gone.

Not strictly true, you can rip out the bottom floor and walls, cause everything else to collapse, then crane away the hull with the mess still on it.

Due to bugs, ripping out the bottom floor and walls will not always make everything collapse. Also some bugs will make it very difficult to rip out the bottom floor, such as bad hit boxes for rivets.

Until they fix the bugs, particularly with bigger ships, it will likely be hard to 100% dismantle them.

Except that the superstructure is, in actuality, the portion above main deck that contains the bridge. You're referring to the hull

We're going to fix those ship-dismantling bugs first. ^^ No need to pile on more frustration than our players are already dealing with. I was thinking, how about we make an achievement that'd require to place in the warehouse all hull parts from a specific ship? Of course, one achievement for one ship. What do you all think? This way, you won't need to worry about parts you might have missed! And let's be real, if you want to use the crane to get the hull part, you're still going to have to tear down the whole ship anyway.

just the hull pieces would allow people to trash the whole ship and break the floor of heavy objects and destroy them just to get to the hull faster. and ignoring picking up any parts and throwing it into the truck.

there should be some counters for hull pieces, heavy objects and at least 98% of the total weight put in the truck / contracts to account for some parts maybe flying off out of sight.

[BurningKat]

Agree, I like achievements that show a players dedication to clearing the ships fully. Not everyone will go for them, but that will show up in the Global Results,

[ZombieHunter]

I don't see how it is possible to manually dismantle every piece one by one right now with how the game works.

Also there are a lot of ship construction bugs that cause floating pieces and objects. As has been said you can completely detach the structure from the hull of the ship and remove the floor and sometimes it just floats in mid air. The determination for what is 'supported' and isn't is also interesting. If you have one 90 degree wall under a group of higher walls it will think the object is supported. I'm not sure if any strength calculations are involved.

I would also like to see some ambient creaking sounds added when a structure is getting weaker. Red Faction 2 did this and it was nice b/c it let you know that the structure was about to go at any moment. Most of the time in that game I was just destroying structures b/c it was so fun. I think RF2 has the best destruction physics I've ever seen from a non voxel-based game. IMHO voxels are fine but they are not as convincing like RF2 or this game when you see 3D models falling apart.

I'd be game for this!! Achievement for craning away all hull pieces of each ship after 'First Steps.' Do it! ^^

I'm thinking 100% of all crane-able objects would be better. So all hull, all funnels, all machinery, plus pallets. That keeps you from letting people just collapse the whole thing and skip everything else.
