Deploys the awesome laser feature of the goblin invention. Once the laser is launch, it will seek for enemies in a straight line, damaging every enemy target it hits. Since the ability is very hard to properly aim, the goblin engineer designed the device to deal bonus damage every 0.1 seconds, meaning that the targets that are far away from the start point will take bonus damage. Cannot affect structures.

Level 1 - Deals 95 base damage to every target it hits. Lasts 0.6 seconds and gets 5 bonus damage every 0.1 seconds.

Level 2 - Deals 170 base damage to every target it hits. Lasts 1.2 seconds and gets 7 bonus damage every 0.1 seconds.

Level 3 - Deals 245 base damage to every target it hits. Lasts 1.8 seconds and gets 9 bonus damage every 0.1 seconds.

Seems to be a nice spell :)

But after about 10 casts (set cooldown to 0), FPS starts to drop. It is not the lightnings that cause it, I deleted even the library and tested. Dummies seem to be cleared properly. Try to find the cause.

mmmmmm.. that's weird.. I will check the code out!

Check the variable names in the call function of Maker's Timed Lightning library. The must ALL begin with the "udg_" prefix!
