Stop crashing things in the first place? :)

lol No its ok when that happens, but whats going on is when I shoot AI down the chopper hits all of choppers in the base. and when they respawn there are craters under them.

ooh right. Not sure if that's a default thing or something Domi adds. There's probably a way to detect those and delete them, but not sure how if they don't have classnames.

well since i was testing a lot of crashes all over takistan, i only found "craterlong", also got a "#crater" when i searched for types, but deleting it made no difference.. maybe its just an particle(fake rubble), as smoke came up same way with a # in front.

was sure there would be an cratershort or whatever, but no.

everything needed is in twirlys link, but here is the core of it.

run this code whenever you want to clear craters from an area.

_list = nearestObjects [(getMarkerPos "base"), ["CraterLong"], 1000];
{deleteVehicle _x} foreach _list;

(getMarkerPos "base") is just a marker named base, lets say at center of your runways.

1000 is the radius from the marker, so it will delete all craters 1000 out in all directions from base marker.
