Nice, that's very kind of you to take the time to help me find a solution to this one. And I think it sounds like your solution is probably a little easier to set-up than what I came up with. I've been playing with an emitter, using the hit location fat wire to emit my red dot every 0.1s. It actually worked really well and looked surprisingly smooth...but it turned out that it would clip into objects and disappear when the laser got more than 90 degress away from the Z axis. Thought I should be able to solve with an adjustment to the Z distance of the dot (as I have everything set to "Local") but didn't work. I'm sure a few gadgets have a Local setting that doesn't actually do anything. I had a look at the outputs of my Laser Scope with and without Local set and they were no different. Weird.
Anyway, I'm gonna give your setup a go when I get on tomorrow. Thanks again for the great idea!
