Well, before I start, thanks in advance.

I had a idea for a crash landing, and I wished to make it happen. I made a trigger in which had my "space craft" moving to region 000.
And I had it set to something similair like this:

Events
--------------

Time- Elasped game time equal to 4 seconds

Conditions
-----------------------
None


Actions
---------------
unit- move space craft 000 <gen> to region 000
cinematic- change space craft 000 <gen> fly height to 1 over (space craft 000 <gen>'s current movement speed)
wait- wait 4 seconds
trigger- turn on fly <gen>
---------------------------

Sounds alright so far? well it did to me

Intially off (checked)
Fly
--------
Event
--------
Periodic Event- Every 0.10 seconds of the game
--------
Condition
--------
None
--------
Actions
--------
special effect- make special effect attached to space craft 000 <gen>'s origin thunderclap..........
enviorment- make crater deformation over 0.50 seconds at unit position of space craft to 512 radius
enviorment- make circle blight at position of space craft to radius of 512



Eh yeah, every .10 seconds was a really bad idea

I ended up with really bad crater that screwed up the graphics card...



To make a long story short, It jacked up really bad.
Any ideas for a succsessful crash landing?

i dunno why u use every 0.10 second just to make the crater, u can just make the crater forming with only 1 simple action.
