Homing/Dark Lightning Gun(Brainstorm, not bug)

[hookoa]

I was thinking about the Rasiermesser smart cannon, and the the dark lightning damage type, and I was wondering how hard it would be to make a weapon that fires a lightning bolt type weapon that arcs toward the enemy.

I'm imagining dark purple bolt that's fast (maybe speed 85-100 since lightning travels very fast), arcs toward the enemy, and looks something like the EMP effect when barbary/dwarg shoot you.

Just add some technobabble about zero-point quantum resistances and a hefty rin price tag and voila! Awesome exotic weapon.

Does anyone know where the EMP blue lightning-ey effect is in the resources?

its hard coded like the radioactive overlay so you cant change/copy/edit it

(the thing that happens to an emped ship is hardcoded not the shot graphic)

it's kind of robust as it is. just change the sizing, intensity and color to fit your specification. as a lightning bolt, i think it works fine.
