[GSG][PC] - Using Inferno spell with Poison Cloud results in game freezing.

Issue #497 resolved
Former user created an issue

Build Version: 0.7.6

When the user casts the spell Inferno from the pyromancy domain and then immediately casts poison cloud from the plant domain. It is observed that the game hangs with a mouse pointer hourglass as the walls are slowly destroyed. Controls become unresponsive and the user is forced to quit via windows task manager.

Expected result The game should not hang after using spells from different domains together.

Steps to reproduce 1. Start the game. 2. Begin exploring and gain levels. 3. Select any character and proceed. 4. Acquire the spells Inferno from pyromancy and poison cloud from plant domain. 5. Use both the spells in succession in any order. 6. Notice that the game gets stuck while the walls are slowly getting destroyed and controls become unresponsive.

    The problem was that poison clouds are incendiary. Damaging them with fire creates more explosions and this got out of control because we forgot to add a check. Additionally the explosion animation was missing so that you also were deprived of a fantastic visual experience while the game crashed.

    Both issues have been resolved: There now is a visual effect and the explosions no longer get out of control.
