Ah well, I guess I'll have to spam those grass doodads wherever the player's going to see their character... or something.

What are you trying to do exactly?

use timer 0.01 (timer 0.00 will desync in multiplayer) and 8190 iterations will complete in 9 seconds.

I'll try timer 0.01, and it's for a single player campaign. Still don't know whether I should try to use the animated grass (from a pack on this site) as an effect or a doodad for this effect.

EDIT: Holy hell did that work! I had a little confusion between seasons where tilesets are concerned, but other than that it works fine now! Now, I'd +rep ya, but I gotsta spread it around some first.
