I'm not entirely sure about rocket and grenade trails but it is possible to change the colour of a rail particle using A_CustomRailgun.

I was looking at A_CustomRailgun, the problem is that it needs to be able to bend ;)

Heh, maybe you could define the colour with the use of the GRENADETRAIL flag? Unfortunately the wiki doesn't say anything about colour though. I would've said ROCKETTRAIL with that but it appears to only be a Strife flag.

A generic "particle spawner" would give me exactly what I need. Basically I'm after a version of the rocket trail which is red instead of yellow.

Particles are woefully hard to customize. They're in need of a modernization to give them more flexibility.
