im not shure but you can try this right click on the decal then name it somthing like decal. then lay down a trigger zone where you want. and right click on the trigger zone and the main script chang it to prlinzoneactivateused then in the if used part wright what you named the decal then test the game when u walk past the trigger zone it should trigger your decal

the described method should work, but don't forget to set "spawn at start" to no, so the decal can only spawn when triggered. This is from the top of my head, will check and edit later if I'm wrong.

EDIT: forget about it, decals have no "spawn" property, bummer.

EDIT2:Now here's what you do!
place your decal and in it's property panel, change the following:
1.Give it a unique name (i named it decal for simplicity here)
2.in its "Start" property, give it the script:"appearifactivated.fpi" from the scriptbank.

place a triggerzone, in its "Main" property, change the script to "plrinzoneactivateused.fpi"
in its ifUsed field, put in the name of the decal.

Test: walk into your trigger zone and see the decal being spawned.

I am Jacks complete lack of surprise.

I found no "appearifactivated.fpi" In My FPSC V115...

Can You Use Something Esle?

Don't just say No it can't be done. Think outside the box.

that's the content of it...

save the sniplet with the said name to your scriptbank.
If that is not a default script, who is the author and earns the credit for it? there was no comment in the script...kudos to the unknown scripter.
