How to add destructible trees to your map

This guide assumes you have knowledge of creating and editing OpenRA maps (See Mapping).

In both RA and TD you just have to add following lines to ^Tree: under Rules:

Targetable:
	TargetTypes: Ground

This allows the trees to be targeted by any weapon that can target the TargetType Ground.
Note: If you use an older version than 20150920, you want to use TargetableBuilding: instead of Targetable:.

The RA and TD mods also have (at the moment unused) artwork for dieing trees, so you can add:

WithDeathAnimation:
	DeathSequence: dead
	UseDeathTypeSuffix: false

The yaml in total should look like this: (Without other additions you did to your map.)

Rules:
	^Tree:
		Targetable:
			TargetTypes: Ground
		WithDeathAnimation:
			DeathSequence: dead
			UseDeathTypeSuffix: false

###IMPORTANT### In Red Alert not only trees, but also other actors like Ice Floes, Boxes and Utility Poles inherit ^Tree and will thus get targetable and crash the game when destroyed. So either don't place them or add this extra yaml to your Rules section:

BOXES01:
	-Targetable:
BOXES02:
	-Targetable:
BOXES03:
	-Targetable:
