There are some doodads that have variations of the same doodoad. Is there a way to create a trigger that changes a doodoad from a variation to other specific one?
The specific case is that I want to make the doodoad that's a tube with some blue-zerg-style creature inside change into a broken tube.

Use the "Send Actor Message" trigger on the doodads actor. and select the "Model Swap" Option Select the model you want to to change to, and the variation number.

Like this.
  • Actor - Send message "ModelSwap CastanarStasisTube 1" to actor (Actor for Castanar Castanar Stasis Tube [91.00, 74.00])

Thanks, it works perfectly. We'll add white screen and an explosion to make the effect less ortopedic.
+rep, btw ^^
