Wood Bounty

Is it possible to have a unit give a wood bounty rather than gold? I don't think it is, so I created a trigger to give the owner of the killing unit wood based on it's point value (no big deal), but I would also like to create floating text over the dead unit that is viewable by only the killing player, is this possible?

Pretty sure there's a "Wood Bounty" part in object editor.

you can always use floating text, colour it green, and make it rise and fade

I searched for a wood bounty field, and could find none; if it is there, it is either "hidden," or I am blind.

I was under the impression that creating floating text could be seen by all players, and in the trigger editor there was no option for specifying what player could see the floating text. The reason that I wanted the text to be player specific, is because it could lead to confusion if sombody thought they got "the kill," but didn't recieve the wood.

Oh! I didn't realize that that after you created a floating text, you had to show it.
Thanks.
I don't know what that is? (but thanks anyway)

What editor are you using? It's in the newest WE.

I was using weu, I didn't realize that it didn't have the same options as the standard WE, so I switched back to the regular one :).

Thanks.
