I've seen particle streams such as pinging, and I want to know how to set up a particle script that would allow this to make a line.

I believe you could use your Own textre, like a default blank texture, stretched over one axis, IE: <0.1,0.1,2>.
Also make sure you turn Particle Glow Off. The actual Flag escapes me at the moment, and too lazy to look it up.

Well, not that specific one, the Z component is ignored in particle size (since they're 2D). But otherwise yeah, something like <0.1, 1.0, 0.0>. Usually you set PSYS_SRC_TARGET_KEY so that the particles move towards a specific target, though you don't have to, and you also want to make sure you set PSYS_PART_FOLLOW_VELOCITY_MASK so that the particles are pointing in the right direction.
I have terrible trouble with these things though, I must say. They just never quite come out looking how I intended them to.
