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. Oddly, this is not used in Red Alert 2 even though it is new to the game engine.


==How it works==
Specifies a list of [[Animations]] from which an animation can be selected for creation on the death of an [[InfantryType]] by a warhead with {{f|InfDeath|X|link}} set (where {{tt|X}} is the list index (zero-based) of the [[Animations]] from {{f|DeathAnims|link}}).If "InfDeath" is not set, default to "InfDeath=0",just like the original set. If no animation is connected to the InfDeath, the first one in the list will be used instead.


==Example==
<tt>
[INFEXAMPLE]
...
DeathAnims=DIEANI0,DIEANI1,DIEANI2,DIEANI3,DIEANI4,DIEANI5,DIEANI6,DIEANI7,DIEANI8
...
</tt>
If the Infantry above is killed by a "InfDeath=2" warhead, animation "DIEANI2" will be played.<br>
If the Infantry above is killed by a "InfDeath=9" or above warhead, animation "DIEANI0" will be played. <br>
However, all of the original animations defined by InfDeath will be override, including "Die1" and "Die2" in the infantry image in ART.INI.(Maybe this is the reason why it is not used in Red Alert 2 even though it is new to the game engine.)<br>

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. Oddly, this is not used in Red Alert 2 even though it is new to the game engine.


Necessary to add despite lack of rewrite:

Automatic List Inclusion

Animations used as values for this flag are automatically listed under the internal [Animations] array. However no harm can be done by listing them manually.
