[Feature Request/Need tips] Smoother Thruster visible/invisible transitions.
on: November 28, 2012, 04:25:23 am
Umm, I don't know where exactly to put this, so bear with me.

Is there a way to have smoother thruster transitions when using the "set_thrusters_status" sexp? Right now, the effect is quite jarring (one frame the thruster is invisible, next frame, visible. And vice-versa) especially if you are doing an in-game cutscene or something. I tried hiding it with a white fade-out, but the effect is quite overkill and unsuitable.

Even if there was a way (SEXP) to have small localized fades (instead of the fullscreen fades we have now) would be cool.
