Need help creating destructible environment death trigger

[BlackEnvyX]

So I have a trigger completed and ready where if a unit runs across a small part of a region, the bridge collapses behind it.

Now what I need to make is a trigger that if any of the units are on the bridge when it collapses, they are killed instantly, yet I have no clue how do to that.

Can someone help? Thanks!

make a rect the same size as the bridge.

trig 1 = ur completed trig
events
conditions
actions
pick all units in group bridgeGroup
kill picked unit

trig 2
event
unit enters region
conditions
actions
add unit to bridgeGroup

trig 3
event

Thanks! Yeah the map I'm making is heavily based on atmosphere and environment while at the same time trying to survive.

You should wait till the bridge collapse animation ends while trapping the units on the collapsing bridge so you get to see the units fall down and then die. It looks better than units spontaneously dying in mid-air as the bridge falls (especially when siege weapons explode).

Remember to filter out air units. It makes no sense for a collapsing bridge to kill air units flying above it.

Oh shit, I completely forgot to filter air units. Thanks for pointing that out! It would have killed some of the spirits if I didn't do that.
What condition would I use to filter them?

nice catch super good i didnt even think about air units. and already did balckenvyx.

this one is the one to use just add to the unit enters region trigger

• ((Triggering unit) is A flying unit) Equal to False

its a boolean comparison

Thanks! Just added it into the triggers.

You also may want to kill and remove all items in that area. Killing items alone will not remove them (causes a leak).

Another idea that I forgot to consider, the map currently does not use any items, but it'll be nice to put that as insurance in case I decide to add an extra amount of depth to the gameplay.
