Magtheridon96:
Approved.
This is quite a useful system. The instance stack is efficient and the loop code is short.
17:28, 26th Sep 2012Approved.
This is why it's better to let the user set some non-array variables which you will eventually store into your system arrays after increasing the index by 1.
My idea is that to create 2 types of same variable, 1 is non-array, and 1 is array, for example;
LH_LightningName0 - This is for user to set it up
LH_LightningName[array] - This is for the code-use
So, the code will
LH_LightningName[LH_MaxIndex] = LH_LightningName0, BUT by doing this, I will increase the amount of variables, is that okay ?
Currently I have like 5 array variables for the user to set, so I have to create another 5 non-array variable for the user to set, is that okay ?
I'm just afraid creating much variable, that's all.
I FEEL PALADON WAY OF MAKING SYSTEMS MAG96!
I'm just afraid creating much variable, that's all.
You should be more afraid of creating arrays, non-arrays takes no space at all compared to an arrayed variable (which makes it so stupid to use arrays for simple things where you dont use the arrays to the fully like settings damage like Damage[1] = 3 Damage[2] = 4 etc.).
Actually this:

Okay, I'll make a copy of each array variable for the user to set, so that they won't mess the code up
Like
LH_LightningName[LH_MaxIndex] = LH_LightningNameSet
Where 'Set' is to acknowledge the variable which should be set by users.
Actually this:
So what is your point from that comment ?
I'm not using array[1], I used array[indexName] am I ?
May I suggest also to replace the names 'LH P2P' and alike to a readable one?...
Like LH Point2Point ?
So what is your point from that comment ?
I'm just saying that if you're scared of making so many non-arrayed variables, well dont be coz the outcome will be the same, you're just creating a variable pointing to that unit handle for example...
Updated to v1.1 (read changelog).

It doesnt support any custom colors,hard for those beginners who doesnt know how to use it.
Hey guys how to easily change the height of triggered lightning .??
ow , now I know . i just read the beginers guide to lightning effects
Dont double post,you might get banned.
Everyting in the instructions, or do I need to read it for you -,-"
Would have been better if the fadings are also configurable but still useful system, 4.5/5 !
