CSpherePartSpawner Initial Radius

Would it be possible to give the explosion CSpherePartSpawner/CSpherePartProjectile an initial radius? That way it would be possible to have shrinking spheres, fake shield effects by having the sphere appear around something but not change in size, etc. I'd try to modify it myself, but I don't quite trust my skills in C++ or knowledge of the engine.

I support that. I'd also like to have some sort of effect with a central gravity point so you can spawn particles which get accelerated towards a point (most certainly the spawner's center) rather than just towards a plane...

As a random vaguely related aside, I'd still love to someone put the dynamic water code onto shields, so that we can have shields that ripple when they are hit by a projectile...

*drools*

I want invisible shields like in star trek, and a peewee doesn't see it and runs into it and he goes AAAUGH!!! and gets thrown back as it crackles.

It's funny. :lol:
