Multiple explosions

[Grande 3:16]

I'm trying to get an explosion effect going in one of my levels where a box has a crack on it, and if you shoot it with an RPG etc it blows up (simple enough), but the explosion triggers off something in the box next to it, so a few seconds later that blows, and a few seconds after that it also takes out some of the floor.

Only problem is I can only get it to all blow up at the same time. If I add more delays, it just ignores them. And if I just set the delay time longer on the explosives, they just go off after the box has already disappeared.

Is there a way that this can be done?

Cool, thanks dude. http://www.3drealms.com/ubb/images/icons/smile.gif

I checked it out and it was pretty much what I was after. I had tried something similar that didn't work, so maybe this one will.

Just have to see if I can get the floor to blow as well and it should be sweet. http://www.3drealms.com/ubb/images/icons/smile.gif

I was messing around with it today. I still need to tweak it more and get the timing right, but at least now I know how to do it.

Make a bridge type sprite set but forget the bottom section. Make four of the sprites 1-sided wall sprites (push "s" on a wall) and a 1-sided floor sprite (push "r" on a 5th wall sprite like above). Give them a shared hi unique from others. You should now have an explodable box. Place a crack on any side of the sprite-constructed box. Give the crack the next hi. The crack's hi will be the trigger for other explosions.

I've done similar stuff to that in other levels (using a swipe card instead of a crack), but it wasn't really what I was after in this one. I was after getting explosions to get triggered by explosions with different tags, which DingBat had in the demo map he sent me.
