- Laser beam kinda bends in the end if you point it at an absorbing wall, lock, block or grid. I'm guessing that was made to prevent other glitch to happen I listed here.
- Laser beam kinda cuts corners of MM grids. I replaced normal grids with walls with a gap between, which are actually 4x4 pixels bigger that normal grids, so you can't see black cuts on normal grids.
- This one only works in most recent dev version (2018.09.28 build). Now the same glitch kinda happens to DF mirrors. I was replaying all 60 Deflektor levels, and I got these little black traces few times (especially on level 57). I was replaying DF levels several times on 4.0.1.0 before, and that never happened in there.
- The laser beam leaves huge and long traces on the entire level while replaying tape in Blind Warp Forward. Here I tried to catch a screenshot because all these lines resets on pause.

Laser beam in MM sure has some problems:

Re: [MM] problems with drawing beam correctly + beam leaves some traces
No, it is because the laser beam is a few pixels wide, and if the center of the beam would be at the exact mirroring point, either the beam would overlap the wall a few pixels, or it would have to be taken care of not overlapping it somehow (which would be possible, but would be a bit tricky). Look at the same beam with a reflecting wall instead of the wooden one.Laser beam kinda bends in the end if you point it at an absorbing wall, lock, block or grid.

But you are right that this could be graphically improved.
Unfortunately, you're right here. This should definitely be improved to not cut the corners. :-/Laser beam kinda cuts corners of MM grids. I replaced normal grids with walls with a gap between, which are actually 4x4 pixels bigger that normal grids, so you can't see black cuts on normal grids.
I think you mean 4.1.0.0, not 4.0.1.0 (which does not contain a MM engine yet). I was able to reproduce this problem just as easy in 4.1.0.0 (and indeed there are no MM related changes since then).This one only works in most recent dev version (2018.09.28 build).

It's the same bug as (2.).
Indeed, haven't tested this case before. Some nasty redraw problem that should be fixed, too.The laser beam leaves huge and long traces on the entire level while replaying tape in Blind Warp Forward. Here I tried to catch a screenshot because all these lines resets on pause.
