Built a Fire Trap

[PapaJoe]

I have q question. I wanted to make a Fire Trap to built in game. I mean you build a invisble thing (only for enemy invisible) and when the enemy walks over a fire flame animation start and the enemy dies. I hope oyu can help me. I have no more Ideas how to do. I think with a trigger. Unit enter Region. But how the animation and the damage, .... i dont know how.

First, make a custom unit based off a farm or something, but don't let it add food or be able to train anything. I would recommend changing it's model to Flame Grill or Mine. Give it Permanent Invisibility as an ability. Also, set it's Pathing to 0, and it's Collosion SIze to 0, so units can walk over it. Then create this trigger:

Fire Trap
    Events
        Unit - A unit comes within [B]10.00[/B] of Fire Trap 0000 <gen>
    Conditions
        ((Triggering unit) belongs to an enemy of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
    Actions
        Special Effect - Create a special effect at (Position of (Triggering unit)) using Doodads\Cinematic\FireTrapUp\FireTrapUp.mdl
        Unit - Kill (Triggering unit)

Fire Trap is the custom unit you made and the bold bit could be wrong, you'll have to test it and see.

have Fun

Im guessing you want the thing to be built right? This is part of a turrent D i guess.

Well this requires it to be pre-placed. And theres a leak for this to not leak it needs

Actions
Set Variable Sfx = Last Created Special Effect
Wait 2 Seconds
Destroy Sfx
