Duck and Cover

Scratching around in the sprite folders I found a couple of light (source) sprites which are quite handy. You'll need to edit them with spray though as they weren't given any header information and don't show up in the right place otherwise.

Under, sprites/items/mission specific/

then

generic/light/red emergency lights.spr

add the following header info

Depth 1 Height 1 Width 1
Center 149 139


mission10/auxiliary light.spr

add the following header info

Depth 2 Height 10 Width 1
Center 149 195
Material 2

mission10/auxiliary light D2.spr

add the following header info

Depth 1 Height 10 Width 2
Center 149 195
Material 2

and then there's an electrical arc pole, very frankensteinish

mission25/electrical arc pole.spr

Depth 7 Height 12 Width 7
Center 150 212
Material 2

Nice. I wonder why they didn't implement some of these things?

I will surely use the useful objects and skill enhancer sprites sometime as they also provide useful, ready-made work.
