hmmm ok I'll look into that
I'm not sure it will give the 200 pix wide beam and 500 x200 pix wide explosion sprite I had in mind and I sort of did like the idea of the beam being there a while (a turn) before going of... but this might indeed be a much better solution. I will also incorporate the option to make damage lower when spreading out.
