Good against stupid questions.


Good idea, certainly useful for light swords or melee weapons.

I also want to use it for something I am thinking of adding involving the thrusters on a mechs back... use your imagination kdr.

A different flamer weapon as in welding tool. :)

Here's a very simple LuaUI toy script that makes all units within LOS leave team-colored trails (SVN builds only). There are some limitations with regards to how the effect is achieved (it doesn't actually sample unit vertex data, for instance), but improving it is left as an exercise to the user. To see what it looks like, drop the script in LuaUI/Widgets, start Spring, and type:

Code: Select all

.cheat
.give 10 <unit name> (trails are most pronounced on planes)
<tell the units to patrol somewhere>

That spams my console with error messages and calling getallunits with nil value

(SVN builds only) ?

Did it also could be applied to helicopter blades?

Perhaps but their movement is predictable so you can just model them motion-blurred right away.
