Here's an example of a new particle, emitter and emitter node.
Step 1
create a new file called emitters.cs in your game/server/scripts directory and copy & paste the above code into it.
Step 2
copy and pase this line to the beginning of your .mis file.
exec("game/server/scripts/emitters.cs");
step 3
copy and paste the following datablock into the .mis file where you would put any other tsstatic or powerup datablock.
Step 4
Set the position to wherever you want it to be.
datablock particledata(projectile2particle)
{
animateTexture = "0";
animTexName[0] = "game/data/shapes/common/electro03.png";
colors[0] = "0 1 0 1.000000";
colors[1] = "0 1 0 1.000000";
colors[2] = "0 1 0 0.385827";
colors[3] = "0 1 0 0.000000";
constantAcceleration = "0";
dragCoefficient = "0.99218";
framesPerSec = "1";
gravityCoefficient = "0";
inheritedVelFactor = "0";
lifetimeMS = "100";
lifetimeVarianceMS = "1000";
sizes[0] = "0.51492";
sizes[1] = "0.24519";
sizes[2] = "0.74571";
sizes[3] = "0.9451";
spinRandomMax = "500";
spinRandomMin = "-90";
spinSpeed = "0";
textureName = "game/data/shapes/tanks/speedyprojectile.jpg";
times[0] = "2";
times[1] = "4.2";
times[2] = "8.49804";
times[3] = "10";
useInvAlpha = "1";
windCoefficient = "1";
};
//
datablock particleemitterdata(projectile2emitter)
{
className = "ParticleEmitterData";
ejectionOffset = "0";
ejectionPeriodMS = "10";
ejectionVelocity = "0";
lifetimeMS = "0";
lifetimeVarianceMS = "0";
orientOnVelocity = "0";
orientParticles = "0";
overrideAdvance = "0";
particleFarDist = "1000";
particles = "projectile2particle";
periodVarianceMS = "9";
phiReferenceVel = "0";
phiVariance = "360";
thetaMax = "90";
thetaMin = "90";
useEmitterColors = "0";
useEmitterSizes = "0";
velocityVariance = "0";
};
datablock ParticleEmitterNodeData(projectile2emitternode)
{
timeMultiple = 80;
};Step 1
create a new file called emitters.cs in your game/server/scripts directory and copy & paste the above code into it.
Step 2
copy and pase this line to the beginning of your .mis file.
exec("game/server/scripts/emitters.cs");
step 3
copy and paste the following datablock into the .mis file where you would put any other tsstatic or powerup datablock.
new ParticleEmitterNode(projectile2emitternode) {
position = "-144.619 20.0121 105.355";
rotation = "0.0116031 -0.00690149 -0.999909 86.1322";
scale = "1 1 1";
datablock = "projectile2emitternode";
emitter = "projectile2emitter";
velocity = "1";
};Step 4
Set the position to wherever you want it to be.

I dont realize any diffrence

Make sure to put:lighttank.emitter = "projectile2emitter";At the bottom of the .mis file!

C:/Program Files/BraveTree/ThinkTanks/game/server/scripts and make a new file called emitters.cs with the info provided inside.
For Mac:
Right or control click on the ThinkTanks icon and select "Show Package Contents" then navigate through game/data/server/scripts and make a new file called emitters.cs with the info provided inside.

Do you put exec("game/server/scripts/emitters.cs"); before object write end?
