I need an MP cog so that when you pick up a thing (like a concussion rifle) There is lightning shot at you from 2 ghost positions for a few seconds.

Thanks in advance.
P.S. I'll give you credit in the levels readme.

Code:

symbols

thing concpos
thing fconc local
thing gpos1
thing gpos2

template conc
template lightning=+force_lightning

message startup
message touched
message timer
message pulse

end

code

startup:
 fconc = CreateThing(conc,concpos);
 CaptureThing(fconc);
Return;

pulse:
 CreateThing(lightning,gpos1);
 CreateThing(lightning,gpos2);
Return;

timer:
 SetPulse(0);
 fconc = CreateThing(conc,concpos);
 CaptureThing(fconc);
Return;

touched:
 if (GetSenderRef() != fconc) Return;
 DestroyThing(fconc);
 SetPulse(0.1);
 SetTimer(2);
end

NOTE: I haven't test this cog, so it might not work

Thanks

A few things wrong:
1- the weapon that is assigned respawns too fast.
2- the lightning only goes to the end of the sector and then stops.
3- I don't know why, but when you hit the lightning, the force protection (i think) icon shows up.
