Hi,
I am trying to create on the ground when an infantry dies. Heres my code:

End

End

What do think is wrong?

[SilverMobius]

I saw on the Blitz II site that they have blood on the ground when inf die, maybe smurf can help.

[old_man_funk]

Yeah, I want to know if I'm close to getting it working or way off :/

[smurfbizkit]

well, I didn't code our blood thing...but I did take a quick look at our ini's and I think we made it an object, unto itself...which spawns then the unit dies....

[SilverMobius]

Yeah, that would work. Just have an OCL spawn your blood and add that OCL to the death behaviours.

[old_man_funk]

Ok great, I'll try that later.

[Botjer]

how did this go?

[Chrizz]

is this one when a guy go's die that there will come a blood texture on the ground same as blitzkrieg?

those are some bits from our code

[Chrizz]

Uhm.. is that the code when a infantry go die that there will come a blood splatch? same as blitzkrieg?
