Which country is preventing me from committing high-treason and attempted regicide?

Hello,

As you can see I'm a member of the Common Wealth.

Apparently a number of buildings (such as BuckHam Palace) are going to be indistructable (like in MSCFS1). This is due to some country having laws against targeting such cultural sites.

Which country is it? What are the history of such laws?

Thanks,

Invisible? Indestructable as read.

Thanks for catching that.

Oleg made mention of this a little while back and I was wondering the same thing. Seems a little absurd to me...

I agree. Struck me as a little odd and not based on fact. Could be wrong of course

.

Perhaps it has more to do with the huge amount of time/effort required to build a convincing damage model for the likes of Buck Pal?!

AV. np,

I wouldn't mind that some buildings that didn't get damaged during the Bob and blitz are indestructable e.g. st paul's cathedral. Why there are such laws excist could be somekind of national pride? Or other reasons? Some simulators removed landmarks after 9/11 so it isn't possible to crash into them or such...

Interesting law... Even more interesting if games like the GTA series or Postal are allowed

I've never heard of this in relation to london...after the RAF bombed Berlin I always understood it was total war from that point....i do know that Buckingham Palace was bombed...imo its a simulation therefore everything should be destructable. maybe add plenty points for hitting historic targets or targets of national importance.

Probably has more to do out of respect to another nation and its leaders/buildings. People are overly sensitive these days and Oleg may not have wanted to go down another PF trip. Not sure if there is any law or other reason Oleg mentioned it.
