OK, I thought I'd post this on a more public platform.

While testing "Bob" and "Fred" I stumbled over what may or may not be a bug:
The Engines of either ship, although set to break, would, drop down to 0% but not be disabled.
I have tested it with all available explostion types:
2 - Break & Explode 1
3 - Break & Explode 2
6 - Break & Explode 3
7 - Blow Up
10 - Break & Explode 4
Regardless of what option I chose, the result will be the same, the Engines' health is depleted but it will not be destroyed i.e. damaged texture + Engine Glow disabled.

After trying with the above ships, I expanded to various other ships:
- Imperial II Star Destroyer (Matt) - Same result
- Corellian Gunship - Same result
- Assault Transport (Doesn't have destructible engines)
- Vanilla Victory Star Destroyer (Doesn't have destructible engines)
- Vanilla Escort Transport (Doesn't have destructible engines)

I'll be off for a few days so won't be able to test. If anybody feels like going deeper into this, feel free to do so.

On the Vanilla ones if they aren't destructible do they at least go dark or still not?
