H5 Making monsters react to their surrounding.

Do you know how to make a archer or any other creature interact with something in the map. Like in the campaign where there was the rebel heaven camp, and you'd see archers shooting at the scarecrows for target practice? If you know, please help me. Thanks!

I would really like to know if this is possible, should I elaborate more?

Can you not extract the campaign map and look how it is done? Since you most likely want only a certain stack, not all units of this type to act in a certain way, you probably need to define the stack as a new map object. (Sorry, do not remember how to do it). Thereafter modify its animation sequence.

You can do this by creating a custom object that will have archer geometry and animation, then just change the animation from idle00 to attack.

If you don't create custom object then when you change the animation sequence (I might be wrong though) all of the archers on the map will change it to attack. That is if you overwrite the animation path in object properties. But if you do it via script then only designated stack of archers, which you have to name beforehand, will change it's animation sequence.

Tell me if this helps, I could explain it in more detail if you need.
