[NAPULS_A]
LoopStart=0
NewTheater=yes
LoopEnd=64
LoopCount=-1
Rate=0
Surface=yes

..is the correct code for the SHP anim for NAPULS. I'm not sure what is so hard about this?

Should i write a short tutorial explaining the various tags you can set for anims?

Surfac=yes helps the game render the animation at the correct level. For example, surface=yes means the anim should be played at the level of the ground surface.

just looking at the [GACTWR_B] etc animations should have been enough. Just look at a simliar coding for your animatio and test it out.

Alright. im going to start messing with anims now. one last question,how go i get an animation(e.g:DIRTEXPL) to play on a damaged unit?(harvester),when they are in the 'yellow' and 'red' states of damage.

It involves making a whole new smoke particle system that doesn't use the default image but DIRTEXPL instead.

Just slone everything related to SmallGreySSys, replace the Grey with Green then change time image of the particle.
