ZADD and arcing beams.
Some one enlighten me if they know how to make the beams in FS2 curve.  I know it has something to do with playing around with the ZADD, but no matter what I try the damned thing won't work, either that or the game refused to load.

Come on, you know you want to... I have free cookies ;7

well they don't arch or bend, they just render funky if you give them a high Zadd (high means like 8)

I havn't seen any curving beams yet.... I always thought Zadd was a broken property of beams

You must add flicking in order for the beam to curve...
Yeah, I know you were waiting for a very nice sig, in which I was quoting some very famous scientist or philosopher... guess what?!? I wont indulge you...

Why, you ask? What, do I look like a Shivan to you?!?
