Lightning with Rain FX

[Wink182]

Hello!

I've seen a few posts on the forums mentioning a lightning effect that used to be present on the rain FX layer when it was set to high intensity. I can't find any mention of it being removed (although I'm sure I could have missed it), and it doesn't seem to be present any longer with any settings I apply.

I just wanted to ask if this was intentional, and if there were plans to bring it back.

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure it was removed a long time ago - maybe even in Alpha or early Beta. There's no firm word on it coming back; nor of any additional effects being added. But I'm fairly sure that the effects will get some love in the future.

There was some change to the shader awhile ago that broke the lightning effect. I was working on something adjacent to the effects last week and I reimplemented a lightning effect. I'll do my best to get it committed to the main branch so that it will make it into the next release.

That would be awesome. Thanks so much!
