Defines which animation sequence should be used when this InfantryType is killed. This is used because InfantryTypes cannot have an Explosion= defined. The animation sequence must be listed in the [Animations] section of RULES.INI and defined in ART.INI. Note that this will over-ride the InfDeath= logic on any Warhead= that kills this unit as this animation will always be displayed when the unit is killed regardless of the type of death that has been inflicted. | Defines which animation sequence should be used when this InfantryType is killed.

This list is only valid for 15 entries, that is, the range of {{f|InfDeath|link}}=0-14. If you want to fully utilize this, you need to use Ares's [Warhead] > {{f|InfDeathAnim|<animation>|link}} to redefine all the original generic death animations for each warhead (a simple batch replacement) to free up these '''15''' slots. | |||
*Only then can you better use this death animation settings defined for the deceased. | |||
If {{f|InfDeath|15|link}}, and the [Infantry] > {{f|DeathAnims|link}} list does indeed have the corresponding 16th item.it should theoretically play the 16th entry (counting from 1) in the list defined by [Infantry] > {{f|DeathAnims|link}}=. | |||
*However, in practice, it will play an empty effect, just like when [Warhead] > {{f|InfDeath|0|link}} is set without defining [Infantry] > {{f|DeathAnims|link}}=. | |||
If {{f|InfDeath|16|link}} or more, then it will use the first entry in the list defined by [Infantry] > {{f|DeathAnims|link}}=. | |||
<br>If the index number specified by [[InfDeath]] + 1 is greater than the actual number of entries owned by [Infantry] > {{f|DeathAnims|link}}=, that is, there is no corresponding item | |||
<br>(including the case where {{f|InfDeath|15|link}} but the [Infantry] > {{f|DeathAnims|link}} list does not have 16 Animations written), | |||
<br>then the first item of [Infantry] > {{f|DeathAnims|link}}= will be used in the same way.<br> | |||
If you include a comma before any other animation, will make the animation next to it will be considered an animation that died from {{f|InfDeath|1|link}} always<br> | |||
