I originally noticed this in 1.6.4, but forgot about it. Seen again in 1.6.5. If Beethro and any number of mimics hit orbs simultaneously, only the orb hit by Beethro will show the usual lightning graphics. The orbs hit my the mimics do not, but they still work. This only happens with both Beethro and mimics hitting orbs - if a number of mimics hit orbs simultaneously, but Beethro does not, all the hit orbs show lightning graphics.

I've fixed this up for the new version of DROD, along with the related bugs: (1) a sword hitting the orb disappears while the orb flashes, and (2) hitting an orb that does nothing doesn't flash at all.
