No. I mean an energy weapon that leaves particles behind like a fighter when it is badly damaged... sort of like starlancer's Anti-Matter Cannons

The closest you could do would be "particle spew"

FS2 doesn't have much in the way of a particle system for weapons.

Ok, I saw the Lamprey, but it only spews on particle... it does exactly what I want, but I need it to spew more than one particles...
