Is it possible to make a parallax weapon/effect? One that won't interact with anything whatsoever?
I was thinking about using weapon effects like the shockwave or plasmaSpikes for purely aesthetic purposes and initiating them through temporary installment of a virtual weapon. Some of them look pretty cool and I want to re-purpose them without having to create my own in Paint.
Parallax Weapons?

It is possible to create shockwaves and other effects (that do not hit stuff) without resorting to weapons.

Hmmm... How would I invoke such a thing and could I get a code example of how to make it non-interactive (I'm not all that fluent in t-Lisp)? I know plasmaSpikes in and of themselves don't interact with anything, but I haven't seen a code snippet I can adapt for other effects.
