Pentagrams & Summoning Circles is a set of functions that will allow you to draw, in real-time, various 2D and 3D geometric forms using a wide selection of media including visual effects and placeable objects.
The script should work on all versions. The demonstration module requires SoU and HotU 1.66.
Update August 11, 2005 : New star, sinusoid and gengon geometric forms; new pigpen code text font; new automatic Scan-and-Build waypoint system. Read attached text for details.
Update April 30, 2006 : visualeffects.2da in recolored visual effects pack now updated and compatible with patch 1.67. :)

This is an awesome scriptset! Thank you very much for your hard work.
Just wanted to mention that I had been having some problems with the beam effects, similar to what was described in the Known Issues. What I found was that in function gao_ActionCreateLocalObject the node objects weren't getting properly set on the data object. I hope that's kind of clear. (It seemed to be a timing issue, sometimes it would work but mostly not. It also seemed dependent on the size of the module, things that would work in the demo would not work in my main module) So long story short I changed this line:
With that change the nodes were getting set on oData and the beams started rendering. Maybe the action queue of oObject is not always getting initialized before the AssignCommand? (I dunno.)

i think this set of scripts are great, nice job. its very advanced for beginners however. information available is good but hard for even advance scriptors to make full use. its awesome in single player modules, however it causes too much lag for me online use. anyways great job on this! _________________________ A Carpathian Nightmare - Action
