Notice how you can hear the ground thud in the impact before the shockwave That is due to the speed of sound/vibration being faster through solid earth/stone
@@kevinwinters4803true, but that might just have a significant Performance cost. If you remember Crysis back in the day, part of the reason it ran so bad, was that every tree and hut was destructible. Scripted and in stages, but yesh you could destroy them. MWLL or Mechwarrior Living Legends, the famous Crysis/Crysis Wars Mod that started the Battletech/Mechwarrior Renaissance had to deactivate that feature pretty quick, as a 10-15 meter high and 20-100 Ton Mexh does quite a number on a forest.
