This cutting laser VFX combines multiple elements to create a laser scorching and burning the ground.
The effects include strike sparks, ember glow, flames, smoke, floating sparks, sparks colliding with the environment (with some exploding on impact), rock/debris particles, realtime flickering light (controlled with a custom script) and multiple scorch/glow trail elements that the laser leaves in its path.
The laser is controlled with a start and end GameoObject, with the laser drawn between these two transforms.
