Protons + the spark form of lightning creates a long lasting and really effective compressed lightning effect. I made this bomb for fun, it's not really designed for effectiveness, just a subjectively cool and nice looking proof of concept.

Definitely! It's a great bomb, just a bit outdated. It's definitely still a potent one. I recommend you focus on trying new design philosophies. Trying something new is a great way to learn.

Hey jimmy, you think I should update my old bomb? 1759046

and sinec you guys thought this was strong, check out my other compressed spark lightning showcase. this is one that i hacked together pretty quickly but with emphasis on strength. it's 1000x better and 1000x uglier. 1649412

so i dont remember how many layers of protons i did. then i did !set type prot sprk and !set ctype sprk ligh, fixed tmp and tmp2, i don't remember what the appropriate values were to make it work well, then bombard the spark with protons. each hit by a proton will trigger one of those explosive things, and a proton can hit a single pixel many many times. also set the life of the sprk to a high number, 65535 isn't necessary.

so once you have yourr prot set up, press ctrl-c, copy it, press ctrl-v, paste it on top of the lightning as many times as you want, too many times is no good, too little times is no good, i believe i did 40 pixels, however i have always used the same sprk-ligh from an old stamp of mine for months.

so to do this you use protons, draw where you want to make protons will be the lightning. compressed or stacked sparks with a ctype of lightning will create this effect, most people use just regular stacked lightning but i discovered spark lightning creates much more lightning per pixel.

really easy. you can stack particles. mmost people like to use !set x and !set y which takes easily 10-30x more than my method and requires a lot of patience. you want a LOT of lightning in one area, LOTs of it.

While there are many things I do know about the powder toy... This ain't one of them. I have no idea how to get lightning to shoot out like that. How do you do it?!?!? Please tell me. Thx ahead of time.
