I keep thinking how do I make a FlameThrower, best way I can think of is...

Have a flamethrower animation, starting off short, then Interpolate it's width for each second a button is held down so it gets longer and longer.

Also having it so we can fix one end to the its point, and rotate from that position. That should be possible?

I think you get what I mean lol : )

    Yeah, pretty easy to constrain it to one point, check out tshirtbooth's health bar video and it'll help you out.

    Maybe try particle effects using the particle attribute.

    ACE - Thanks brother, I mainly just wanted to know if you all think it's a good idea.

    Mr.R - I've been suggested that, but even with videos I don't get how people get that good smokey effect. I just get random little blocks. lol :S

    @ Oz you can add images to the particles to make them whatever you like :)

    Use particles as said before.
    Take a look at the platform templates torches, when you figgle around with the numbers you can get a flame thrower.
    Collisions with other actors could be a problem now I think of it... hm.
