You should have fire inflame true in a trigger's on activation field (fire is the name of your fire).

What they are telling you is correct, however I'll try and make it even easier for you...

Type this in the INIT field of the fire:

THIS INFLAME TRUE

Or....

name the Fire FIRE

and use

FIRE INFLAME TRUE

There you go, hope that explains it a bit better!

hes not talking about lighting the thing from the start... you guys have to be a lot more careful when it comes to reading peoples posts..... he asked how to make a unit light it..

i did have a quick go at trying to make it work but couldn't figure it out.. i have never tried making another unit light a fire confused.gif

It's all the same because there's no animation when a unit's lighting a fire anyway.

just make a trigger active when the unit gets very close to the fire, then set a few seconds delay, make the unit playmove "combatToMedic" and then "[fire] inflame true".

It'll seem like he lights it!

BTW, I don't think you can use the name fire, it's reserved variable AFAIK.

but combat to medic is a very realistic useful action.... i used it in a mission once to make it look like some units of mine were planting c4 on the back of a tank... biggrin.gif
