As the topic title suggest, I'm interested in creating something similar to Magnetron's weapon from YR; "colored line from the attacker to the target with a kind of 'wave' effect"; in pure RA2. I'm not really sure whether this is possible or not, but I thought that asking in good manner is never a bad idea.
Maybe there's a way to do it using "IsSonic=yes" command?
From Deezire's tutorial:
IsSonic=
Can be set to 'yes' or 'no' and specifies that the weapon and warhead utilize an internal routine that draws a colored line from the attacker to the target with a kind of 'wave' effect. This is only used by the Dolphin in Red Alert 2 (it is modified code from the Disruptor in Tiberian Sun). It is not known if the line can be made continuous (as in Tiberian Sun) rather than 'broken', although the IsMagBeam=yes tag on a weapon in Yuri's Revenge creates a similar effect.
Thanks in advance for anyone willing to help.
