   |   Charging weapons.I've never made one, I've seen some, but now I want to know how to make one.Like, you hold down the mouse button for 3 seconds and the charged bullet is 3 strong, if you spend 5 seconds, it is 5 seconds strong.

   |   Re: Charging weapons.Do you mean in the AAL mod? That wasn't really charging, just a bunch of blanks, and the last shot in the clip is a giant laser, or something.

Yeah, check out the gatling gun for the charging animation then I think you would separately code the bullet amount of bullets in lua.

   |   Re: Charging weapons.I said I saw it done without Lua.   Not that I did not need/want Lua. So, yeah. Waiting for someone experience with Sparkly Magicks to post. The Gatling gun does not charge, that is a fire delay, My bubble fan uses it. Okay, I basically want it to be You can hold down the mouse button for a maximum of 5 seconds. when you release the mouse button, a single MOParticle is released of varying strength, depending on how long you held down the mouse button, using different sprites for each 5 levels of strength.

   |   Re: Charging weapons.Sounds like LUA, but what if you could make a A-emitter shoot out that shot a particle out that shot an emitter out that shot a particle out and so on?
