similarly to real lava am I right? what if it cooled and hardened though too? it would be a cool idea for maybe an alt. fire to turn the lava projections into solid mass?

Then what is that supposed to mean? Does it create a polygon of liquid lava that molds itself to the surrounding level geometry, gradually expanding and lowering? Does it create an expanding splash effect around the hit, causing a ring of lava? Is it hundreds of tiny projectiles that fill spaces and run down sloped surfaces? Does it scatter droplets of lava that can flow together to make larger ones? Does the ball of lava split into drops on hit?
Discovered the UT99 Assault maps...so THAT'S why there's a bunch of weird movers that don't do anything in some NAB levels.

Well I wouldn't know, I haven't made it yet, and I often make design choices sporadically based on how the iterations feel as I make them.

Then don't assume it will be so complicated if you don't know how it will be made yet.

I don't think you understand, I'm setting out to make it complex in the way it behaves and interacts with other things. Just because I don't have a word for word plan, doesn't mean I have a bad idea of the kind of complexity involved. You should really just trust me on things like that, I've made hundreds of these things before. I know what the underlying complexity is like and how to estimate it.
