If it's a megabeamer, increasing the damage will have that effect. You can also stretch any weapon to widen the shot/beam.

WRONG. You mean shockbeamer, not megabeamer.
Selecting a weapon and using A/Q and shift-A/shift-Q resizes it. I forget which proportions and which way around, but you'll figure it out I'm sure.

With PROPER spelling:
Lol, I don't watch what I type, I'll try again, lol.
You may also INCREASE the RANGE to change its size, but I don't RECOMMEND it.

Also for future reference. . .
With pulsars, if you want to make them look like a beam before they launch themselves. . . you need to set the shot deviations to 0-3.
Just thought you might like to know that interesting bit of info. . .
With High spread it makes for a cool effect.

We already said that you have to use A/Q. Pay attention.
Also, increasing the range doesn't increase the size per se. It just increases how far the shot travels.

no it does make the weapon itself (the model) larger.
