Someone asked this just and I told them how to do it i am not sure if it is in nikkydudes guide and i couldnt find it in a search so here it is incase anyone else wants to do this and is stuck.

Ok for this to work you need 3 componants:
*A trigger zone.
*The barrel you want to explode.
*Another small Fpsc object to use as a detonator.

*Now place your trigger zone, and then change its main script to appearifactivate (attached)
*Set the if used propertie to the name of the small object you are using as a detonator
apply the settings

*Now place your barrel to be exploded and your detonator object next to each other.

*Right click on your detonator to access its properties:
*attach detonator as the start/appear script (attached)
*make sure its set to dynamic
*set spawn at start to "NO"
*set its strength to "1"
*set its physics force damage to "9999"
apply the settings

*Right click on your barrel to access its properties:
*attach barreldestroy script as the the destroy script (attached)
*make sure its set to dynamic
*Set immobile to "yes"
*make sure explodable is "yes"
set its strength to "1"
apply the settings

*Place your barrel where you want it
*place your detonator inside the barrel out of sight

NOTE: The extra scripts are so if the player destroys the barrel with a gun before reaching the trigger the detonator object is destoryed also.

Your set run your game and watch the fun

Any comments? go for it

Thanks
Adam

cant you just set the barrel to spawn when the player enters the t zone, and set the barrels spawn life to 1 or something.

You can tell i'm an old-school gamer, right?

No, then the barrel will just disappear or break(not exlode). But this is very useful thanks man!

no problem , Glad a few people have found this usful I think this will be great for making people jump or just generally making a game more action packed.

Yes i think so but then they see the barrel appear out of nowhere which doesnt look so cool

BY THE WAY: Does anyone know if this is in nikkydudes guide i havent seen it but I don't have the latest version and havent had time to look lately?

Thanks

you don't seen them you download them and follow the instructions you can see them once there downloaded but there in a zip because there is 3 of them needed to get the right effect

@nikkydude: could you point out the page to me all I can find is making a barrel spawn and explode straight away. Not a barrel thats already present on the level then explodes when a player either steps in to a zone or shoots it.

Thanks
