Continuous Lazor?

[EEvilMuffin]

I'm making a laser swep but I'm not very smart. So I'm asking how would you script a continuous beam that lasts 3 seconds and kills on contact? Well I know how to kill on contact but I only know how to script a bullet, not a laser.

With render.DrawBeam and a trace.

Also If I want the laser beam to be a custom texture I have how would I do that? I know it goes in the materials folder...
