Trouble with Chainlightning gun.

Aren't enemies that are already dead, marked as dead? Try using that.if (enemy.state == dead_dead)

Skip stuff?

quick and dirty solution: reuse some float field (my favorites are aflag and cnt since monster code never refers them) as a "already hit" flag.

Also, you could have a counter limiting the number of lightnings fired at once.

Silly me, works like a charm. I also made the damage reduce by 40% as the lightning jumps further, until it reaches 1 and then no longer continues.

An interesting tweak would be to check the entity waterlevel and change the attenuation based on it.
