TE_BEAMDISK

An additive sprite disk that expands over time. The orientation of the disk can't be changed.

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Vector	pos	Center point of the disk
float	radius	Max radius of the disk
string	sprite	Sprite used to cover the disk
uint8	startFrame	Starting frame for the disk sprite
uint8	frameRate	Frame rate of the disk sprite (FPS * 0.1) (has no effect)
uint8	life	Time to display the disk (seconds * 0.1)
Color	c	Color of the disk sprite
uint8	scrollSpeed	If set to 10 or greater, the disk starts out fully stretched to infinity and appears to rotate.
Values < 10 have no effect.
