Flag:	LightningScatterDelay
File(s):	Rules(md).ini
Values:	Signed integers: All whole numbers from -2147483648 to 2147483647; in rare cases, only from -32768 to 32767.
Default:	0
Applicable to:	General

The delay in frames between random lightning bolts from a Super Weapon with Type=LightningStorm. Decreasing this appears to inflict a serious hit on game speed and performance as the game has to perform many calculations for each shot - slowing this process down will thus slow the game down.

It not only controls the interval, but also the number of clouds generated each time.
- Of course, under Ares, you can use the Lightning.ScatterDelay and Lightning.ScatterCount statements to define them separately.
