I want to telefrag other actors first, but that's cool too.
However, I've noticed that the actual teleport location lags behind the aiming dot pretty considerably.
This makes teleporting to an exact location less likely. At least for me.

I've thought about alternate methods to get around this, and one in particular struck me as a good idea; giving the actor a sharpaim-like aiming method, so that you can extend and retract the pointer at will. However, I know that guns with massive range tend to act really weird when aiming at something nearby, so this may in fact not work.
Just a thought.

Nah it's actually just a hiccup with my script, not a problem with lag or anything.

If it helps, the indicator is always going to be exactly 24 pixels in front of where the actor actually goes.

Extremely worth it.

...Great.
And those 24 pixels are in the direction of the actor, yes?
I'm going to have to go look at your script, and see if I can make head or tail of how to fix it.

Look at the script. Replace 24 with 1 in both instances (should be exactly two)
