Cc cnrdelete-all.pngLogic related to TreeFlammability, as a whole or in part, is obsolete in Red Alert 2 and/or Yuri's Revenge.



The chance a tree is ignited by an adjacent tree that is on fire.

Each burning tree terrain object has a 1% probability each frame of game time to try to ignite trees next to it. If this happens, all terrain objects in the eight surrounding cells are handled separately, each now having a TreeFlammability chance of being ignited as if hit by a Sparky=yes warhead.

In other words: A tree next to a burning tree has a 0.01 * TreeFlammability chance of being ignited each frame (15 frames equal 1 second). The average time until being ignited is 50 frames / TreeFlammability.

Forest fires are not available in Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge.
