advanced demo trap

[trained_assassin_14]

how do you use the ADTs? On TD (I was demo), I built a ADT by his unbuilt tunnel, and when it finished building it blew up my guy as well. Whereas, a guy I played, placed the explosive, and didn't explode till the his worker left. How'd he do this?

hahaha. whenever there is enemy soldier, the trap explode. so u should build them when there is no enemy, and then ur worker leaves. when enemy comes into radius, it explode and kill them. :D

Although you can use the suicide worker demo trap beneficially. You can put them in front of enemy WFs to kill the first thing that comes out (and badly damage the factory) or put them near an enemy GLA supply stash to kill all the workers there :p

They're most useful however on flanks. There is a good chance you'll catch your enemy off guard once. Don't count on it working twice though.

The final alternative of course is to simply have the worker place them near tech structures, supply piles, frequently traveled areas, and chokepoints. It's a bit time-consuming though to be this thorough, so just make sure to place them in the most likely areas that your enemy will head to.

Okay, here's the replay. Just fast froward to the the tunnel being built in the middle....

This is what he did:
1) He built the demo trap so that your worker was outside the trigger range.
2) When it was done building, he moved his worker away.
3) He clicked on the demo trap.
4) He clicked on the Detonate Now command button.
