I was really interested in using this, but when I place a Game Logic I get no options for any different types.  The only unit available is ‘Game Logic'.  Do I need an add-on?  I have an un-added-on 1.96 installation.

I think it requires the Tonal addon, don't know where it can be downloaded from though

Pity.  Thanks

Here :

Code: [Select]

_object = _this select 0
_amount = _this select 1
_size = _this select 2
_life = _this select 3
_startalt = _this select 4
_velocity = _this select 5
_zvelocity = _this select 6
_mercytimer = _this select 7

#Adv_Params
_delay = 0.01
fogoff = 0

#loop
_count = 0

#Begin
?(fogoff == 1): goto "exit"
_dir = random 360
_vx = _velocity * sin _dir
_vy = _velocity * cos _dir
_sizerand = _size + 1

#Mist
drop ["cl_basic", "", "Billboard", 1, _life, [0,0,_startalt], [_vx,_vy,_zvelocity], 1, 1.275, 1, 0, [_size + _sizerand], [[2,2,2,0.1]], [0], 0, 0, "", "",_object ]

#Counter
_count = _count +1
?(_count == _amount): goto "timer"

You wonderful person!  Thank you.  You have quite restored my faith in people.

@ m21man

Could you give an example of the correct parameters to use your script? Are some of the values whole or fractional values? Are we talking single digits or double digits or even triple digits? I am looking forward to trying this out but I do not want to spend hours getting it to look just right. Thanks!

Here is a quick test mission to try out in the editor. Just take a look and customize away!
