[General Freak]

Duh! The super-Fenris with red beams!

The white beam light looks like an egg.

[ToecrusherHammerjaw]

Wha........?!?....

[Luigi30]

So anyway... how can I stop that? I want it so that it takes 10 seconds  before key-reset is called and the beam can be fired once more, but I can't figure out how to do that.

Unless you're using the every-time SEXP instead of when you can't. It's a long standing bug with FS2 that you can't use Key-reset in a repeating event.

If you're using every-time then certain keys will work while others fail.

More details here

So I'm stuck with beam-free-all and the beam targeting whatever ship you have targeted then.

[karajorma]

Nope. You can use every-time to set a variable and then key-reset.

Then use the variable in a second event to determine when to fire the beam and reset the variable.

You know, I was messing around with beams myself last weekend:



As for the turrets firing multiple beams simultaneously, I think that's actually used in the main campaign in sm1-06 (The Great Hunt). The Ravana fires both LReds at both the Lysander and Actium at the same time.

[Luigi30]

I saw two fire-beams, one pointed at the Actium and one at the Lysander.

Also, the Lysander self-destructs after the Ravana is detected, timed to be when it's hit by the beam.

comcast is being a *****, i can't see the pics.

but those pics are HILARIOUS!

Reminds me of the time I added "Player Allowed" to the BGreen beam's flags and put it on both turrets of an Osiris. Fun times.
