Hey guys. Im trying to make a laser that shines from one side of the wall to the other but to make the laser you must have a starting entity and an ending entity with a name. The walls aren't entities, so is there a way I can make them an entity that doesn't really have any function, other than a name so I can make the laser work? Thanks.
