I'm curious. Instead of wasting all night to figure this out.
1.Does anyone know if I can link fire as an fx after an explosion along with smoke. Do I do it in the normal fashion such as #set yadda yadda.
2. Can i link and explosion timed to a plane flying overhead?
Hey it worked! This map is gonna be so sick. I got the Stuka chasing the c47 while the c47 is dropping a bomb on a bridge destoying the bridge... *Whew*.... that took entirely too long to script. Now I gotta make another one.
They didn't actually drop the bomb. ie bomb dropping in the air, but I timed a hurtme explosion with the same #set as the plane. I used a wait .5 like i used it for the planes sound when it flys over and vualla the bomb exploded right where the sound was and BOOM.... i died.
Oh I see what you are asking. I'll post an exact script when I get it ironsed out. It is awesome. I just started experimenting with the #sets and different things. You can trigger almost anything with the script editor if you are bold enough to try it first. MOHAA ROX you are better than me at this I know you can figure this out.
WOW Cool. Can you do that? That is awesome. You gotta see what I made. It's fricken awesome. I made this building that is fully explodable from all sides. I wanna make it burn but when I add the fire fx to the exploderfire it just goes away like the explosion. Oh well.
The building is great. I gave the walls health 250 so it takes 1 grenade sometimes sometimes 2. People are gonna love this level I can tell. My next building is gonna be the opening sequence when the level starts. Sun is setting, fog 7500, Three bombers fly over from the sun flare and blow up a 4 story clock tower. ROCK!
Does anyone know how to script the fire fx so that it stays after the explosion. I already hooked it as an exploderfire and it just disappears like the explosion when it's done. Anybody? *tumble weeds blowing*
I know there's more than one way, but first one I thought of would be to use a 'hide/unhide' function. Set up your fire and in the script use a '$targetname hide' and then 'unhide' that will 'unhide' your fire just after the explosion. That would be one dirty way to do it.
Otherwise, and I may be wrong on this, I think you need to add a life expectancy integer to the entity to get it to stay........check the 'g-allclasses' file to see if you can find some related commands.

I didn't say use unhide Slyk did. I'll try what you said.
Thank you a lot.
(as long as you know)
