I have been creating some weapons and started thinking some of them would look nice if a portion was animated just for a simple effect like floating particles. This is a simple idea, but can it be done? Has anyone else done this? If so can anyone help me with this? I understand you could make it look animated when you attack but I want to create a passive animation. If this can not be done yet I'm fine with that. It would only be nice if there was a way.
Passive animation requires a reasonable amount of knowledge in lua and currently only possible on nighties. If you check the blog posts - there will be a post about an animated missle launcher done by meta dept - I do believe the code for it is also available in that thread. I used to have the snippet but probably misplaced.
