What would be the best way to implement a creatures ability that is suppose to be able to generate and shoot bolts of light?

[Old Greg]

Probably with a material emission that emits a SOLID_GLOB. You'll need a custom material for the bolts of light, though, and I'm not sure how exactly you'd want those to function.

[Furtuka]

It's basically suppose to be a kinetic blast. They should stop existing after impact

[Old Greg]

For that, you'll need to make sure the material's boiling point is less than 10000 with a low specific heat. If the attack hits something, it'll automatically be "broken" and not existent, but if it misses and lands you'll want it to boil pretty quickly.

[Furtuka]

They work mostly, but they don't dissapear when they enter a liquid or go down a z level? What's causing that and is there a way to prevent that?


EDIT:By the way, on the subject of a different creature I've been working on. How do I make a creature's skin (or in this case scale) secrete a substance that won't transfer surfaces much, but contact with it causes necrosis?
