Description (last modified by )
Currently, the player clicks the building icon in the unit UI, then places a foundation. Then the unit walks to the foundation, smacks on it for a bit, some dust rises, then the building pops into existence.
The desired enhancement should go like this (the enhancements for this ticket are bolded):
- Player/unit places foundation.
- Walks up to it, starts building.
- Scaffold actor appears (or rises very quickly into place), and dust starts appearing.
- Building rises up slowly through this as a percentage complete.
- At 100% complete, the foundation actor disappears, and the scaffold actor either just disappears or drops down quickly (as if dying).
I could see something like this in the building templates:
<VisualActor> <Actor>structures/athenians/barracks.xml</Actor> <FoundationActor>structures/fndn_5x5.xml</FoundationActor> <ScaffoldActor>structures/construction/scaffold_5x5.xml</ScaffoldActor> </VisualActor>

Builders begin building. Scaffold quickly rises (or pops) into place. Building will begin rising into place as it is built.

Building is nearly completed and is nearly 100% risen.
