The building ruins system introduced in {{arma1}} is quite different from the one in {{ofp}}. In {{ofp}}, a destroyed building saw its vertices moved, twisting its 3D model as well as its collision LOD - making this a very cheap but improvable system. In OFP we had a rather nice rendition of the bulding after destruction, that, in itself, was useful, visual, and usable for some missions (The Award winning Abandoned Armies eg). In {{arma1}}, the original building moves under the terrain to simulate collapsing; the damage also changes from 1 back to 0.<br> Destroyed Buildings that used the DestructEngine type will vaporise (dissappear) unless a ruins model is associated with them.

Rubble would be more appropriate, since there are also genuine ruins in the game. (Helfenburks eg).

The code below avoids the use of the word ruin where possible. <syntaxhighlight lang="cpp"> class CfgVehicles { class House; class MyHouse : House { /* ... */ }; Worse, a building that is replaced by rubble comes alive again. It's damage is no longer one. Making target scripting moot. class CfgVehicles { class Ruins; // required for the ruin model class NonStrategic; class House : NonStrategic { class DestructionEffects; // re-declaration is needed }; To further complicate the issue, any building that needs a ruin replacement (what doesn't?) must be called a Land_xyz class. Why this should be can only depend on what you're smoking at the time. class Land_MyRuinedHouseModel : Ruins // note the Land_ prefix { scope = 1; // protected scope - not shown in editor displayname = "My House Ruins"; model = \some\ruinedBuilding\MyRuinedHouseModel; // .p3d extension is optional - note that the Land_ prefix is not required }; class Land_MyHouse : House // note the Land_ prefix { /* ... */ class DestructionEffects : DestructionEffects { class Ruin1 { simulation = "ruin"; type= \some\path\MyRuinedHouseModel; // .p3d extension is optional - note that the Land_ prefix is not required position = ""; intensity = 1; interval = 1; lifeTime = 1; }; }; }; }; }; </syntaxhighlight> '''Even worse''', building animations did not work in arma one without a Land class.
