hi all
Is it possible to do random explosions in a trigger zone with sound (heared even if not in the zone), I know a little about scripting but still having a problem with it being random and displaying the explosion decal..
TY..

Hmmmm, does it HAVE to be in a triggerzone? Can't you just script an explosion decal to randomly run it's animation and play a sound?

I see... you're wanting the explosions to appear in random locations as well as at random times?

Hmmmm.....

You'll need to set up a bunch of decal entities (for the "random locations"), script them to play the decal ONCE (and play a sound) when activated... now script a "controller" entity to activate 1 of the random decals at a random time interval. This entity should be always active, too, so either set that property on the entity or use a triggerzone or light for it.


Good luck!
