WML Workshop • Re: Merge unit animaions

The [animation] tag doesn't support "apply_to."

…what are you talking about? Yes it does. The [animation] tag is rarely actually used for animations though, so you won't see it very often. None of the animation tags that are generally used support apply_to – only [animation] specifically. For this specific use-case, [extra_anim] is usually used, which takes flag instead of apply_to for the same meaning.

I'd like to give unit animation "explosion" which should be unit's defend animation + my custom halo
An idea how to do so?

I'm afraid you're going to have to manually duplicate the content of the unit's defend animation. Look up the definition of the DEFENSE_ANIM macro, copy-paste it into your explosion animation, and modify it as needed. And if needed, add the extra [frame] tag described here (maybe rename the tag to [flash_frame] though).
