Ship splitting mechanic

[GoldenEagleLeader]

Usually if your ship catches on fire and then explodes (which is rare) it usually just blows off your masts and causes damage to the crew and ship. My idea is to add ship splitting after a second explosion than just blowing off your masts and causing damage again. This would be a super rare occurrence considering the rarity of a ship exploding a second time but I think it would be a very fun edition to the game and would make it much more realistic because barely any ships survived a large 2nd explosion and sometimes split apart (depending on where the explosion was).

 

Some examples of ship splitting in games is in Empire and Napoleon Total War. I know it would be a lot of coding to do but it would look very beautiful in-game especially with the Unity engine and I think a lot of players would enjoy seeing a giant explosion followed by a ship splitting apart and sinking like the Titanic.

I'm all for more destruction and Michael Bay effects.

Any main magazine explosion would blow the ship to pieces.
