Break func_breakable_surf via Lua - Developers

This is somewhat of a followup to my physically simulated bullets question. I've got them working great except that they don't break the windows on (for instance) cs_office. I've verified that they're hitting it, and they're even leaving the glass bullethole decals on them. But they're not breaking in such a way that the player can then walk through. What's the best way to do this? Leaving holes in the windows that correspond with how they were hit (ie: regular behavior) would be a bonus but just turning the glass into it's fragile, cracked state would be a victory.

Using Entity:Fire seems a little hacky to me... Can you tell me what the extra args for it do?

Input a vector. First two coordinates are the X,Y center of the shattering (as values from 0-1). The third coordinate is the radius of the shatter, in inches. [/quote] I don't think it's hacky at all, it's actually how bullets do it normally. [editline]4th February 2017[/editline] Only thing I can't help you with is how you'll calculate the vector on the glass for it to be in the right place. But I'm sure you'll figure that out easily

I ended up just hardcoding it to "1 1 0" so that the glass breaks but doesn't make any holes. The reason for this was that the breakable isn't collideable anymore after the first hit, so I couldn't add any more holes to it. But apart from that, it's great! Thank you very much!
