I want to make an ability that involves my Probe planting a bomb right where it is and have the bomb explode 5 seconds later. Anyway I can achieve this?
You need to turn the campaign dependencies on for starters. Then you just look at the Reapers weapons, C4 should be there along with its actors and effects.
If u want to look cool, u could change the bomb model of the reaper to the Seismic Charge from the Campaign Mission. But take a look at reaper bomb ability u may find anything usefull.
Unfortunately I still don't know where the C4 ability is... I clicked "Create New Map" and set the dependency to Campaign (Liberty). Then I went to the Data Editor and searched up Reaper, but I can't find where the ability is!
Create a new map
-> Custom, and I checked all four standard dependencies
-> Created the map, went to Data Editor
-> Searched for Reaper, but only found 3 abilities
But may I ask in what way is this ability similar to what I am looking for? I mean it is not planted on where Reaper is standing, and it also explodes on impact, which is not what I want.
Hmm.. Actually, I can't find the ability button that allows me to use this ability in-game! In the command card it is located at the bottom left, but I don't know why it is hidden when I go in-game.
Its hidden? Wierd...hm. Its similar because it explodes. Just that. Now lets focus on your ability. Take a look on the effects of the G-4 some of them can be used for ur.
Well yes, I understand how to make the explosion and area damage and stuff, I just don't understand how to plant the bomb on the ground and have it explode 5 seconds later. Do I have to apply some kind of behavior to the missile or something?
EDIT: Never mind! I was on the wrong ability. How careless of me :|

Look at the abilities from the campaign version of the reaper. I believe its their C4 charges that work very similarly to that.
Where can I find that campaign?
@Nothing5: Go

Put all the dependencies on.
Still no luck. All I see in the "Weapons" field are (D-8 Charge) and (Reaper - P-45 Gauss Pistol).
It isnt on weapon fields. Its a ability.
Well, there are only three abilities and they are Stop, Attack, and Move. I don't see C4 anywhere :(
So u dont have all the dependencies on. Because in my i have that threea abilities more G-4 Ability. Isnt C4 its G-4

I don't know what's the problem here :|
I think I found it, is it "Reaper - G-4 Charge"?
Yes!
Thanks!

You dont need to actually play it to see how it works. Check the effects.
