Grow a tree over time?

[NeuroToxin]

Is there a way to grow a tree over a set amount of time EX: 120 Seconds? like at the point targeted and have a 120 second cooldown

 

[pr0-assasin]

if the tree is a building just set build time to 120 seconds.

I haven't opened the WE in a while, but perhaps animation speed would help?

assassin, Its a grow tree spell, I want it to Grow, not just be built

when you create a destructible via trigger actions the destructible will always play its "birth" animation which is the growing animation of a tree (when using the standard tree model).
to make it grow slower you need to set its animation speed:

• Animation - Change (Last created destructible)'s animation speed to 100.00% of its original speed

is there anyway to tell how long it will take? ex 120 seconds?

Algebra.

animation time * x = 120

View the model by selecting it in the object editor. That should display the model's preview in the main editor window. Next to the animation name, it shows the animation length. You can find the desired speed depending on the length.

Animation speed=Animation length/Desired duration;

For instance, if the length of the animation was 1 :

Animation speed=1/120=.008333; [ljass]//not a percentage[/ljass]
.00833=.833/100;

Edit: @AoW : Ninja.

That formula is flawed. But trial and error should work. Meaning, try little by little

 

[NeuroToxin]

But its a tree, it only has one animation, and it doesnt say how long

 

[Ashlebede]

It's flawed? >>D:

 

[esb]

I had only seen AOW_Hun's post
Yours seems about right. I wouldn't know.

Or what the hell do I know bout formulas. Just try it little by little. Try 50%, too fast? go lower %. Etc.

Make Region with Tool Palette and make this trigger:

• Life Distructible
  • Events
    • Time - Every x seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Destructible - Pick every destructible in number of region <gen> and do (Destructible - Set life of (Picked destructible) to 100.00%)

You kinda posted this in the wrong thread. This one is about animation, not life.
