Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

When using small arms (5.56 and 7.62), it can destroy whole buildings in a very short time This isn't accurate since shooting at the walls alone can topple half the building. Only high explosives should be able to destroy buildings, not small arms fire.

Building can be destroyed by only one machinegunner after around 200 shots fired

Yeah, even with a normal rifle it doesn't take too many mags. Buildings in general seem weak when hit with any sort of explosive/damage.

Mass closing ancient tickets with no activity for > 12 months; assume fixed or too trivial.

If this issue is still relevant in current dev build, please re-post.
