Right click the entity and there is Exploadable: Yes/No, and you know what that means. And if you want it to explode, when you shoot at it, put it's life to something, like 25 or so. If you don't want it to break, then life should be put to 0. And if you want it to explode in a certain amount of time, then there should be something like: "Spawn Life:" Add a number of how many seconds you want it to live, like; Spawn Life=3, means, it will exlpode in 3 seconds. Hope this helps! And using trigger zones and this method, can make your games even cooler!

When something explodes the destroy script is executed. You will need to customize a destroy script to indicate that a particular object has exploded. You will probably use variables or an activateifused command.

Well this script wouldn't be hard at all, if you read some of the guides around here about scripting you would find that this would be really easy, and very cool looking. Or maybe you can ask very politely in a request thread in the script section? Imagine how cool it would be if the alarm went off as soon as the barrel of oil (or whatever exploded) bad ass music triggers, and followed by fearsome guards? Well scripting IS easy and adds a very very fun twist to your (and everyone else's) games. Scripting is a vital part for ANY project with a game engine to succeed and be minimalistic fun.

If you you cant get anyone to help you, just try yourself I promise if you past a half bad example of your newbie script (no offense) YOU will receive help by the community!
