Engine emission...
I've seen lots of mode with interesting angles of emission, like jetpacks, etc, etc. Along with rockets that have two propulsion engines instead of one.
It seems like it should be simple but I don't know where/how to change the code.
Not knowing this little detail has limited my creativity for a while. -_-;

Re: Engine emission...
EmissionOffset = Vector
EmissionAngle = Matrix AngleDegrees = XXX

Re: Engine emission...
D'oh!
So you make it fire two emitters? But how do you assign it to the bottom thruster? Just list them both under it?

Re: Engine emission...
No, you make the one emitter have two offsets and angles.

I thought it could only be done in an illusive way, with a flash effect that had the appearance of two emissions. Trying it... This does not seem to work. Although for uncontrolled emitters you can attach another emitter with different angling/positioning to an emitter, I did know that.

Re: Engine emission...
Could also use the Wide Beam method. That's what I used on Maxim's ICBM rocket thing.

Re: Engine emission...
How did the Grav lander do it? Didn't it have two propulsion engines?

Re: Engine emission...
Ah. So the emitter is in the middle, it shoots out invisible particles. It's flash is split it two.
Got it.
