Hmmm... I'd say it could be done, tho you'd have to mangle one of the
current weapons to do it (to provide the extra code pointers). For
example... the chaingun currently shoots twice per time the user hits
the fire key. Just slap on an extra two cycles, so that it shoots 4
times, and then add an extra fifth "cycle" that shoots the tracer (steal
a code pointer from the plasma rifle, convert plasma -> tracer).
Drawback is that the user cannot shoot less than 4 shots at a time, but
if you make it into a big gun that shouldn't be a problem. Hold it down
and you'd get 4-bullet bursts interspersed with tracers.

Hmm...instead of bothering with code pointers, why not just edit the
gun sprites and put in the tracer fire by hand? Quick & dirty, yeah, but
it's easy and it'd work, might even look good.

All this talk about a Capture-The-Flag scenario got me thinking, and
I've created a very simple example of the theme. It supports 1-on-1
and 2-on-2 play. I playtested it last night, and it's actually quite
fun (and really fast-paced).
Anyways, let me know if y'all want to check it out. I'll uuencode
and post it.
Cheers,
Brian K.
