Just a little "how to"
Is it possible to create a weapon that looks like a laser but doesn't hit it's target instantly?
(I tried putting Speed=1 on laserfire but I figured that it wouldn't work)

Is it hardcoded by it's warhead Super?

(Just another little question:What happens to a weapon that has IsLaser=true, but warhead isn't Super?

depends on what do you want. If you want blaster fire like in SW, then just simply make a blaster-fire looking projectile for your weapon. If you actually want a delayed laser... uhm... good question... try making a weapon which has an invisble projectile with the given speed, but with inner and outer laser colors. Or mess with railgun logics, or even cyborg reaper clusters.
About the super WH, I dont think it have any influence on the speed but try it.
