There exists a native to play doodad's animation. You can use it to hide/unhide it, but the pathing won't be changed.
And there is no way to do so.. so you only can change it's visuality with it.

native SetDoodadAnimation takes real x, real y, real radius, integer doodadID, boolean nearestOnly, string animName, boolean animRandom returns nothing

There is no function in GUI for it, but you can go with custom script:

An example to hide all doodads of a "doodadType" (rawcode) in range of 1000 of coordinates x/y:

Custom script: SetDoodadAnimation( x, y, 1000, doodadType, false, "hide", false)

to unhide them again:

Custom script: SetDoodadAnimation( x, y, 1000, doodadType, false, "show", false)

If there is a need to remove the doodad's pathing, you would have to change to destructables.
There is an destructable enumeration function, and you can show/hide/ressucrect/kill/create/open/close them. So pretty much anything you would need.

Where is the problem?

 

[jonbon29]

In making triggers actually my head hurts with them.

Well, if you tell me the x/y coordinates, the radius, and the rawcode of the doodad, then I can write it for you.

 

[jonbon29]

Sure write it pls dude now this script must be more complicated than the trigger,anyway ill learn them some other times.

 

[IcemanBo]

You still need to provide the above asked information, so I can write it. ^^

 

[jonbon29]

hahaha i dont know or understand that x/y coordinates or raw code of the doodad dude, anyway thanks for the help in the info dude sorry if i dont undertand such things like that.

It will hide/unhide all doodads in radius "r" of the location(x/y). If you have a rect I can use the centre of the rect, too. (though I need to know the name of the rect)

Rawcode: Go in object editor -> View -> Show raw data ... Now there is a 4-character code before each object. This is the rawcode of the object.
