This module places lvz mapobjects where players die. So it can be used to place craters or ship junk to give a realism effect. Lvz sample included.
If you still don't know what I'm on about, think of the game Worms and the tombstones that are left behind when the worms die.

Hey Smong, nice module
I was wondering if its possible to make this module ship specific. If a warbird dies, if would show a specific image for the warbird. Spider dies it would show a specific image for the spider and ect for each ship.
Also, how long does the image stay on the map? Is this time configurable?
Thanks,

it would be very easy. i'll do it if i feel like it sometime.
if(p.ship == SHIP_WARBIRD)
{
drop this crater
}
if(p.ship == SHIP_JAVELIN)
{
drop this crater
}
etc...

For the record, it would be much better to put it in an array than an 8 way if statement.

In the example the images stay forever until they get recycled (oldest layed cratered gets relaid). But you can edit the ini up to about 7 minutes (lvz limitation).
