Artificial Rain

I read through Skayter's guide to artificial rain, and I got everything working.....except the needlers fall down and don't stay in the air. I've tried setting their weight to 0, even, 0.00000000000000000000000001, and that didn't work. So I guess my question is, how do I make it so the needlers don't fall from the sky but float? If it's possible that is.

Set the projectiles Initial and Final speed to 0 in the [proj] tag.

I don't want the needler projectiles to float I want the needler -weapon- to float. The projectiles and everything work just fine, it's just the gun falls to the ground and shoots the needlers along the ground. I want the gun to remain stationary in the air.

If you are spawning the weapon through ITMC, in Entity's meta editor, set the "Floating?" or "Properties" value to float. (For the needler ITMC)

I don't have that option, in Entity's Meta Editor, for the itmc tag it only has under Item Permutations, Weight, which I've tried setting to 0 and 1E-24, and then Unused Spawn Time.

Monkey Terd is talking about the Collections reflexive in the SCNR tag, not the itmc tag.

Yea, sorry I wasn't specific enough. Also, it might be labeled "Netgame Equipment" as well..

Thanks. Worked like a charm.
