Ability to "break" rover tires.

[bigdad84]

I would like the ability to "break" or deflate rover tires on your own... As in having your Kerbal do it...

Why, exactly?

Why, exactly?

Long story short. Built a rover (has 6 tires... equally spaced apart, 3 on each side) Sent it all the way to Eve to transport Jeb, only to find out that the middle wheels were lower and caused the rover to be high centered and tip back and forth... If i had the ability to break the middle tires... problem would have been solved.

Completely admit my fault though... should of tested it.. But still had me thinking, theres no reason as to why I shouldn't be able to break the tires, at my own leisure.

You could have a option for "pop' in the same way you reinflate tyres. So like a option: If the tire is inflated, have the 'pop' option. If it is busted, then have 'fix'

EXACTLY!

(Although in my case I just ended up using whack-a-kerbal to break the tires)

Besides, isn't that kinda Kerbal? Sending a rover all the way to a distant planet, only being able to have your Kerbal purposely "pop" it?
