Title: Terminals what does it take to destroy them?
Post by: TheJournier on October 25, 2017, 11:58:08 PM

So, I've taken a habit of destroying terminals after I can't use them (or they become too risky to use rather). But some terminals, I found are very very hard to destroy.... after they impervious to certain damage? If so, what kills what? Here's what I've found on my own experiments.

Level 1 Terminal   Level 1 machines (aside from terminal)
Emp gun.             Mining Laser
Cannon (any)       Melee Weapon
Mining laser         Explosives
Explosives.
Melee weapons

Level 2
Melee weapons...

Examine the machine (x and d in keyboard mode, right click otherwise) and you'll see it has an Armor value and some damage modifiers for damage types. You need to deal at least Armor value damage after modifiers are applied to destroy it. This applies to all machines, walls and props.

Thanks... sometimes the menus and key bindings overwhelm me.
