We're planning to add hull breach from a small asteroid or space-debris impact to the possible crisis scenarios in version 0.23. But as we prepared to implement it we realized that we're not sure:
What would a hull breach actually look like?
Would the hull material be bent in and then punctured, so that from the inside, it looks something like a volcano? Or would it actually be bent outward from the air blowing out while the metal is still hot? Or would it simply be a ragged hole, where the hull material was instantly vaporized on impact?
