Anyone would like to have solid tron, just type in set tmp tron (73483987) or something like that and it becomes like a kinda diamond ;p
It doesn't work, just makes the tails really long.
EDIT: It does works if you set the tmp to around 40 or so :D
Setting the tmp to random numbers won't help, if you know the bit flags for .tmp, you can do some fancy stuff.
0x01 is whether it is a head or not.
0x02 is whether the tail does NOT get longer over time(Fixed in v80)
0x04 is wait flag, don't set this, it delays moving for one update
0x08 means particles never die (which is what this topic is about, fixed in v80)
0x10 means it is Dying and will glow until fadeout (although with the head flag it will still grow, and won't save this flag)
0x20 and 0x40 is direction of head
11th - 16th is the color. (0-31)<<11
.tmp2 is the tail length
If you want to make particles never die from a specific tron, create a tron particle and set its .tmp to 9 (1+8). It will be red, because the color was 0, to set a color, pick a number 0-31 and multiply it by 2048. Try setting one to 32789(1+ 16*2048), it will be some purple color.
thought of that before ;p
