    I need to create some lightening bolts 🙂

    I've tried using a tracer linked to a couple of objects but couldn't figure out how to get the branches of electricity coming off the main bolts.

    I saw the new particle branching scene in the asset browser but don't know how to just get straight/jagged lines like in real life.

    I don't have access to Maxon one, so can't use the Electric spline node.
