Buildings with asterix (*) signs

[Guest ciks]

I've noticed that somtimes buildings has an asterix (or two) next to descripiton, for example "Heavy building **" or "Light building *.

What does it mean?

[Samhain]

The amount of damage the building has sustained. I think it's in the patch readme. Two asterisks mean the building is about to collapse/explode.

Sounds reasonable. Thanks.

np. Here's what the readme for the 1.05 patch says:

* Buildings and bridges are labeled with "damage" or "heavy damage"

when they've taken over 50% damage and the "Warning Labels" option is

on. Additionally, they're listed with a '*' attached, like

"light building*", or a '**' for heavy damage.

Just yesterday there was a longer post on this. I believe ** means the building has taken 75% damage, so it's time to leave.

Just because a building only has one *, don't assume it's safe to stay in. I've seen one hit from a 75mm take out a 2 story light building with just one star. With my 105mm spotter and crack sharpshooter in it.
