    so I'm trying to use some very simple scripting, having that big destroy-able platform thing from the rig trigger some blocks to despawn when it gets rekt.

    Well I'm fairly confident my scripting is right but it just won't work. I've tried using the terminals and I can get them to work, but I really want to use the plat from the rig.

    Someone said they didn't think you could get any of those props to script. I haven't really tried anything else so I don't kno.

    Has anyone encountered this before? Is it tru that it's just not possible?

    Try merging a power core (not the Forerunner one) into the platform with an on-destroyed script. This way, when a player ground pounds the platform, the explosive will detonate and trigger the script. I believe the power core deals no actual explosive damage, so it shouldn't hurt anything. The very top of the explosive needs to be just above that of the platform in order for it to take damage.

    So all you need to do for the platform is set is so when health is below 1.00, it triggers the action you want (send message or power set). I've used this a few times and it works, for some reason it won't trigger on lower health amounts.

    Actually I tried that but the problems are thus- you can rocket the thing on the side and it leaves the powercore just floating in mid air, you can also pop a nade under it and get a similar result.
