Game will crash if Battle Bus with Rebels destroys Nuke Battle Masters

[TranzistorP]

If sitting in Battle Bus or Civilian Building a Ranger, Rebel, Redguard, Colonel Burton or Minigunner destroys a Nuke Power Plant or Nuke Battle Master and because of this the Battle Bus or Neutral Building is dealt a lethal amount of damage, the game will be crashed.
But if Building is KindOf GARRISONABLE_UNTIL_DESTROYED it will be OK.
Map for test is attached:

P.S
Sorry for my english

Where did you put GARRISONABLE_UNTIL_DESTROYED to avoid crash?

[TranzistorP]

I added GARRISONABLE_UNTIL_DESTROYED to the KindOf string of all civilian buildings in my mod. But this isn`t very good solution. Maybe it will be better to give detonation delay to Nuke Battle Master and Nuke Power Plant. As far as i understand, the game crash when it happens in the same frame.

For this reason this bug doesn`t occur for Tunnel Defender (and other units have a Projectile Object) and Demo Trup.

Wow, thats insane

Need to debug again when we have more code in Thyme. I cannot see which object this state machine belongs to. Is it the bus or the passenger? I suspect state machine was already cleaned up because of death, yet it is being accesses afterwards.

I think I've fixed this.
Basically let the fireweaponwhendead behavior fire a dummy weapon, creating a system object that then fires the actual weapon. The "downside" of this, is the origial object does not get exp, but its dead most of the time anyway (though infantry in a battlebus might survive). Genpoints are given as one would expect. I think this is a worthwile tradeoff until it can be fixed in Thyme.

Needs to fixed for at least the china tanks, power plants and the bomb truck

Thank you and welcome. I have taken the liberty and fixed the code format of your code block.

What do you mean with "the origial object does not get exp"? If a death explosion occurs, then that unit does not need XP anymore anyway, no? Does the death explosion benefit from veterancy however? Aka is a Vet 3 Nuke Battlemaster doing more damage when exploding?
