If I understand correctly, the exposure factor is sort of a damage multiplier which is applied to crew, weapons and equipment of each compartment, unless (I wonder why?) they are linked to an external 3d model, and the model got a damage box. Is this correct?

Two thoughts:

- functionalities of most equipments are connected with the controllers applied to their 3d models. Therefore, the more damage shown in the damage management window, the worse their functioning. On the other hand, equipments missing 3d meshes/controllers can take damage, but this damage is not actually connected with any function. It that was true, it would imply that damage shown for them in the damage management UI is correct, but this damage is just a cosmetic feature, not involving any loss of functionality

- the HP setting in upc files is probably applied to equipments missing 3d models and damage boxes. If an equipment got a damage box, the HP setting of its zone (or of his SH3ZonnesCtrl controller) is used instead.

Can you confimr/disconfirm my thoughts?
