Hey. I'm trying to make a cave with a ceiling that becomes transparent when a unit enters it. I have the cave set-up, but the transparency is acting strangely. Sometimes it'll work, sometimes it won't. What controls this? Any advice?
Take a look at the models that you're using. There's a field called Occlusion. The ceiling's model should have "Hide", while every unit's model should have "Show" selected. This way, whenever the ceiling would obstruct the view on a model that's tagged "Show", it should become transparent.
