Just copy the normal grenade, and change the time it takes to go off.

Code: Select all

LifeSpan            = "0.6"

You could create a particle effect for the timer countdown text.

Or, just modify the timebomb to use a different model (the grenade model), a different throw power (the grenade throw power), and ... that should do it!

Thats what I did but it crashes the game. Will post the files I used momentarily.

EDIT: the lifespan did the trick. solved. I know have a timed sticky grenade. I dont need the timer above it once I had a second thought on it. Thanks!
