What do you mean, "destroy a trigger"?

Tell us more.   What are you actually trying to do?

I don't really know what you mean, but if you're using the trigger to for example activate a variable

variable=true

you can 'destroy' as in deactivate the variable when the triggers becomes deactivated, by typing in the deactivation field

variable=false


I don't know if deletevehicle works on triggers but you might want to try it and then share the results with us

triggername deletevehicle      or was it   deletevehicle triggername
Not all is lost.

srry i didnt explain it properly, i meant how to stop a trigger from functioning by using variables.

i want a second trigger to be activated later on in a game which has in the activation field "trigger1=false". then use that to deactivate the first trigger. wud i put in the first trigger in the deactivation field "v1=false"?
srry im gettin confused now!

the deactivation field has nothin to do with killing the trigger. The deactivation field are plane and simple just as the on activation but the straight difference. On activation field activates when the conditions in the condition field are met and the deactivation field activates when the conditions in the condition field are NOT met.

Ok then, on to da Q:

what does it says on yer first Trigger condition field? Let us say it says "OFP" and thats a keyword and you know what a keyword is right? Now all ya have to do is put in da second Triggas on act field

OFP=false

If you would have put in

OFP=true

the trigger would have been activated and we donÂ't want that to happen right? Remember if you got a lot of keywords you only have to deactivate one of them but be aware of this: Also deactivate every activator so it wont restart the whole thing again. If you have a lot of activaters do a keyword with only 1 trigger and make it be activated by start and use that trigger.

I hope I didnÂ't sound too complicated in the last few centences ;)
