Creating doodads on the fly.

Basically I want to create a pit of fire that opens up from the ground.
I can use triggers to create a pit by creating a crater in the terrain.
I need to be able to then call up the fire doodad and put it in.

I replaced the mushroom doodad with the 'fire[base]' model, which is fine - I can now place fire whereever I feel like it. Just need to be able to create them on the fly.

Anybody know how??

How about placing your fire doodads inside your pit. And then use a trigger to hide the fire. And then you "unhide" it when you want.

Problem with that is that fire is classed as a cinematic doodad.
The triggers only give you the ability to control destructables.

If there's no easy way to do it I'll export the fire[base] model, reimport it as a custom model and then use it that way - is a bit of a pain in the arse though.
OR
Just edit the code using the Jass editor, again though it's faffing around.

Anyone else got any better solutions??

Found the fire model and reimported it, now I'm not restricted in what I assign it to, in other words it worked.

How you solve your problem?? You reimported the model, and savid is as destructible?? and then hide/unhide???

Why dont you just use the trigger

Destructible - Create a Your Doodad at (wherever) facing (Random angle) with scale 1.00 and variation 0

?
Seems like it would save you a lot of time.

or just put the fire model on a unit and place a have a trigger create a bunch of units at the bottom of the pit and make them move outward to regions outside the pit.

Just make a destructable with the same model.
