How to make a castle a doodad?

[Apocalypsen]

I'm making a RPG where all buildings are doodads. I need to be able to make the Castle a doodad but it isn't possible becouse the Town Hall and the Keep and the Castle is the same model. What can i do?

Nope.. they are just packed within one path.. or one model dunno
But you might have noticed some addition that most other units don't have..
watch the object editor exactly, the Castle has some additional animation/model tag.. which uses third upgrade or else.. dunno the exact name.. but you have to add an additional tag that chooses the right model for you, else it will be the town hall all the time, just search a bit in object editor, should be under "graphic - ??" part, something like animation tag or else

use it as a neutral passive unit, upgrade it to the level you want to ...

if you dont want it clickable -add ability locust

I believe the Town Hall, Keep and Castle are a single model with various animations. Try playing animations third, or stand third.

upgrade, second is the correct animation.

Ehh... how do i set this thread to Solved?

You can play animation for doodads. So make the doodad a townhall and through triggers you can make it play the castle animation. So in the WE it will look like townhall but in-game it will look like a castle

Its called Art - Unit Variation i believe. Just set that to 3 or whatever castle is and then it should show up as a castle.

using triggers. you can creat town hall doodads then creat region on it. using trigger dodads - play dodads animation
