K, so here's the basic idea:

The Plasma gun rains plasma projectiles

So I want to have the plasma pistol shoot out 20 - 30 projectiles and have them "rain" on people (ie by changing the arc). Seems easy enough right? Wrong. So I changed the following:

[proj]

Arc - 30
inital speed - ???
final speed - ???
Homing/turning - 1
Life span - 200

[weap]

Projectiles fired: 20
Min. spread: 0.01
Max spread: 0.3

The problem is that they shoot out way too fast. I want them to have a "rain" effect, so I want them to shoot out fast, but fall down slowly. (or at least be slower all around). The way I have it now is perfect, the only thing is I don't know how to make them slower. I've tweaked the inital and final speed numerous times but it never worked out the way I wanted it to. Any suggestions?

One more question - how do you change how much damage a weapon has, besides changing the number of shots?

Thanks in advance!

change the inical speed fast and final speed slow... i think

Yeah, all you have to do is just go under projectiles in hmt and change the initial and final speed.

yeah, make the final speed 0.3 and the initial speed 40.

hmmmm, try changing the final speed, if that doesn't work im not sure what will, i mean i think its the falling global that takes over, and idk how to change it

Then they go too fast.

Then change the initial speed of 40 to 4...or 2

To make them fall slower, just lower their gravity in physics, I believe.

you can only change the gravity for vehicles

N/M, I got it working now. The trick is to chaning the final speed really low (5E-10) and chagning the life span. Thanks
