Quote - Do you want the animation to show a beam starting from his hand, firing outward, then leaving his hand to finally arrive at the target?  If so, then I shouldn't use a seamless loop, but rather a conventional start-run-stop sequence.

 

Would it be too much to ask for both? Opens up many more doors to it's usage, i.e. does he wanna shoot a short blast at someone, or completely fry them with a continuous stream of electricity.
