So we're doing some BP brainstorming and the notion of making slash beams less random whilst still being slashy was talked about. For this particular sequence, the weapon's stats are:

+Start Position: CENTER
+Start Position Offset: 0, 0, 0.8
+End Position: CENTER
+End Position Offset: 0, 0, -0.8
+Orient Offsets to Target: TRUE
+Scale Offsets to Target: TRUE
+Per Burst Rotation: 180
+Per Burst Rotation Axis: CENTER

It looks great when the target is static! When the target is not, however, it's kinda whacky.

So our requests are:

  1. A flag to ensure that type 5 beams will trace the target in the orientation it was when the beams are firing, rather then warming up.
  2. A flag to ensure that type 5 beams will trace the target whilst they're slashing (eg so a beam can "follow" a target).
