Vision Shots?

Not sure if it's intentional, but shots when fired will give vision of the area it ends permanently, though it is a small area. Kind of useful for setting up ahead of time to see which direction creeps are chargin' in from.

Do you happen to remember the shot used to create this effect?
Or the gun?

FYI the Sniper rifles have a Flare gun in which you can use to see which particular lane creeps are coming from, but for only a short duration.

If you don't know what shot it was? Can you describe the details of projectile?

Also what version of MM? 6.0? or 6.1?

As far as I know, it's any shot. Not sure about the gun, I only tried it with shotgun. I'm guessing it's the same way with every gun as well.

The area in which the shot ended, where the projectile stopped from its range limit, would have a very small spot where you could permanently see the area. It's only noticeable if you do it away from the center where all the NPCs are since you'll always have vision there.

As for the version, I only know that it's funky in 6.1.

Here's proof, I was using shotty and fireball shot, and I agree this likely applicable to any gun or shot.

Nice find blue!

NICE. Wonderful catch!

It was a bug in the missile system, where the caster used as the missile was not being destroyed, at all. ( Must have screwed that over in Beta 4.0 when I re-factored the missile system. )

You just fixed the biggest lag source of my game! ( In truth it was almost insignificant, but Metal And Magic was designed to be laggless, so it is a big deal to me! )

Thanks a lot, and it will be removed in Beta 6.3

KOOL! good to know it will decrease lag
