Component:LightningMesh

Component image 

Lightning Mesh component as seen in the Scene Inspector

The LightingMesh component generates geometry of a procedural lighting bolt for use with a Component:MeshRenderer.

Fields

Fields

Name	Type	Description
persistent	Bool	Determines whether or not this item will be saved to the server.
UpdateOrder	Int	Controls the order in which this component is updated.
Enabled	Bool	Controls whether or not this component is enabled. Some components stop their functionality when this field is disabled, but some don't.
HighPriorityIntegration	Bool	If true, integrating this asset (e.g. processing procedural assets) gets higher priority than assets with this flag off. An example is user laser procedural meshes.
OverrideBoundingBox	Bool	Force the bounding box calculated from this component to use OverridenBoundingBox instead of calculating when requested.
OverridenBoundingBox	BoundingBox	the bounding box this component should say it has when OverrideBoundingBox is enabled. Useful for bounding box calculations with Flux, or changing the selection box for this component when rendered.
Profile	ColorProfile	The profile that the vertex colors for this mesh should be displayed in.
Seed	Int	Used to generate a sudo random variant of a lighting bolt mesh
Points	Int	how much detail the lighting bolt should have.
Topology	Topology	The Topology setting for the lighting bolt
Shading	Shading	The shading for the lighting bolt geometry. Like smooth or flat for example.
Ends	Ends	how to handle the geometry at the beginning and end of lines in the lighting bolt
DualSided	Bool	whether the lighting bolt is visible from the inside.
Point0	Float3	the start point of the lightning bolt
Point1	Float3	the end point of the lightning bolt
StrikeLevels	list of StrikeProperties	A list of different branch variants and bends in the lighting bolt.

Sync Delegates

Triggers

Method Name	Method type and Arguments.	Description
BakeMesh()	Action	Bake meshes is a sync method that creates a static mesh component with this component, replaces all references to this component with the static mesh component, then deletes this component.

Usage

Attach to a slot and insert into a Component:MeshRenderer to view the geometry it generates. Don't forget to use a Material.

StrikeProperties

Generates a group of lines that shoot out at random bent angles with multiple segments. The start and end of these forks in the lighting mesh can be controlled via its settings.

Fields

Name	Type	Description
Segments	Int	The detail of this fork group
StartWidth	Float	the width of the start of the forks of this fork segment.
EndWidth	Float	the width of the end of the forks of this fork segment.
MinOffset	Float	the minimum offset from the start of the lighting bolt for this fork group
MaxOffset	Float	the maximum offset from the start of the lighting bolt for this fork group
ChildCount	Int	The amount of forks in this fork group
MinChildTargetDistanceRatio	Float	the minimum distance of the children of this fork group from the center bolt.
MaxChildTargetDistanceRatio	Float	the maximum distance of the children of the fork group from the center bolt.
MinChildTargetOffset	Float	The minimum target offset for children of this fork group.
MaxChildTargetOffset	Float	the maximum target offset for children of this fork group.
