About
A chain lightning link between two targets. Two tapered jagged tubes meet at an apex above the midpoint, three thinner branches fork away from the main path, and each ground contact carries a crested ring wave and a flattened bead. Bounding size 1.22 by 0.83 by 0.37 m, metres, +Y up, +Z forward. Origin: ground contact at y=0. The effect emits from the ground plane and its lowest geometry sinks 0.013 m under that plane, so the mesh is settled onto y=0 and the emission plane sits 0.013 m up. Opaque solid geometry throughout: this pack uses no alpha blending and no transmission, so the silhouette and the emissive material carry the read. Static mesh with no animation clip, no skinned rig, no collision and no navigation data.
