Changes the plasma so it bounces around after hitting solid objects.

Bouncing plasma!

This short tutorial shows you how to change the movement of the plasma gun so the little plasma balls bounce around.

Open up g_missile.c and go to around line 259 in the fire_plasma function and add the following line of code:

  
bolt->s.eFlags = EF_BOUNCE;

This will make the plasma balls bounce against walls instead of exploding. You could also change EF_BOUNCE to EF_BOUNCE_HALF and make it bounce like grenades.
