Since fog is already used in map making, why the hell can't it be implimented in rocket explosions n' shit? I'm sick of smoke puffs and animations.

For situations where you're outside the fog looking in it's very limited, usually only being able to enter it from one side. _________________ "Maybe you have some bird ideas.

I'm not too familiar with the proper terms. _________________ "Maybe you have some bird ideas. Maybe that’s the best you can do." ― Terry A. Davis
