Hack request - items with hit_pts = 0 flash in wireframe

foxUnit01

I hate to be a pain in the ass, but in lieu of w0dk4’s tip of using 0 hit_pts for an item that should never be destroyed (ship-essential equipment that really shouldn’t be damaged, etc.), I’ve discovered the item in question will flash red in the ship’s wireframe view, since the item is at 0 hit points.

Would it be possible to instead have the item in question simply use the same light blue that the regular ship wireframe does, so as to be completely indistinguishable?

        74 XX 90

XX = 4E for yellow
     58 for aqua
     15 for dark blue

```The normal color is aqua * 0.7, so the aqua above appears a bit brighter.

Incredible. Does this only apply to items with hit_pts at exactly 0? It appears to work exactly as intended.

I didn’t expect to hear back this early. You rock!

Yep, exactly 0. I expect normal objects would be destroyed and removed, but if not, it’ll apply to those, too.

Awesome, I didn’t expect such nonsense was possible (I figured the “flash when below this threshold” would have to be changed entirely). Thanks adoxa!

Here’s another approach, removing the item altogether (so make it 00000FE0 to remove the cloak).
