Ok, I was playing around with the TNT crate trigger, and I got an idea. Lets make a Bomb Cart that will explode when you kill it! I've seen this done before but only with modds. so this is what the trigger looks like.

First place an ox cart

Trigger_1
active
run immediately
high priority

Condition
Is dead (select the oxcart)

Effect_1
Change Unit Type (click the cart)
Protounit:Crab Blood

Effect_2
Camera Shake
Duration: 3.0
Strength: 0.15

Trigger_2

Active
Run immediately
High Priority

Condition
Always

Effect
Change Name
Name: Bomb Cart (Trigger_2 probly Isnt completely neccessary but it adds effect)

I have heard that suggestion like millions of times, but be happy finding it.

EDIT: I have added a note to the guide for the TNT crate.

Yes, periods and smileys are the same for me

No matter what you say

Never knew that. :] I learned something new today.

By the way, you spelled "immediately" and "neccessary" wrong. Now YOU learned something new.

Thank you, please drive through.

You also might want to add "damage units in area" with the "bomb" cart as the centre unit.

yeah and crab blood doesn't make a very good explosion, you could try making it change into an underworld explosion, and modify it so it has a lifespan of 1 second. Lampades blood works too.

Try the Meteor Impact Ground instead, that is way more effectful.

Also, this trick has been discovered a lot of times before. But, you did a nice job on working in out by yourself.

Chicken blood actually damages units around it.. :P

If you want to get fancy, then you'd toss in a few sound effects, camera shaking, and whatnot.

The crab blood damages the units around it.
Thats why I used it instead of lampades blood, plus I like the way looks, but you can use whatever.

Another thing thats fun is having it setup so you type in the word "detinate" into chat and a bunch of things explode.
