AffectedRadius

Type: float

How close an Actor (or geometry) must be in order to be latched on to.

Default value: 1200.0

AffectedTypes

Type: name

Array size: 3

Types of Actors which can be latched on to.

Default value, index 0: Pawn

Default value, index 1: Decoration

Default value, index 2: Projectile

ArcLifeSpan

Type: Object.Range

How long an electrical arc lasts.

Default value:

Member	Value
A	0.1
B	3.0

BeamType

Type: class<BendiBeamGenerator>

Default value: Class'ParticleSystems.BendiBeamGenerator'

bLatchAtOrigin

Type: bool

CDH: Latch at origin of actors instead of collision cylinder

bLatchGeometry

Type: bool

Do we attach to geometry?

Default value: True

bOn

Type: bool

Modifiers: public

Default value: True

bResetArcOnReuse

Type: bool

Try setting this to true if your electric arcs are coming out straight sometimes.

bStartAtOrigin

Type: bool

Set to true if you want all the electrical arcs to come from the origin (rather than from individual polys).

DamageRate

Type: Object.Range

Amount of damage to apply to attached Actors (per second).

Default value:

Member	Value
A	50.0
B	100.0

DamageStart

Type: Object.Range

CDH: Amount of damage to apply at initial latching

LatchRate

Type: Object.Range

Number of seconds between latching. (A latching is when a new electrical arc is created).

Default value:

Member	Value
A	0.1
B	0.3

MinArcLength

Type: float

Arcs shorter than this get ignored.

Source

Type: Actor

Use this Actor's mesh (defaults to Self).

SparkType

Type: string

Name of the Package.ParticleGeneratorName to use.

Default value: "Sparks02.ParticleSalamander0"

SpreadDegrees

Type: float

CDH: Nonzero limits latch beams to a cone of this angle around the generator's rotation. Zero uses full 360 degrees.
