Just a small update, but lots of programming behind it. Implemented the Player Hitbox resource in B5SC. Added support for multiple damage areas (2 in fighters - forward and aft, and 5 in capital ships - fwd/aft/starboard/port/core).
This will eventually allow for directed damage against engines, bridge, weapons and other systems hardpoints. This involved lots of script and engine changes (to add the hitbox variable). Whats next: Separating the engine energy variable into left/center/right engines and directional and retro thrusters.

non-gaming news: My first term (teaching GPS420) is half over with DeVry. I wish Torque was used instead of the "Building Blocks Engine", but its a learning experience for all involved. My first trimester as Department Chair for Information Systems at Informatics International College (Cainta branch) is over and went well.

Most threads on the forum say it does not work with the 1.4.

with appropriate changes to work with my project (I used HBxx).
The hard part was changing vehicle.cc to support differing numbers of Hitboxes (1 for fighters, 2 to 5 for ships and 9 for bases) and changing the onDamage() scripts.
