A simple remake of the After Effects Beam effect in blink script. I tried to keep the settings the same as the AE version.
For those unfamiliar with the effect:
Fires a beam between two target points (2d position knobs, animatable), with adjustable start and end width.
Animate by keying the Time value between 0 and 1.
Can toggle a 3D perspective movement on or off.
To use, simply place a blink script node and load this script into it.
If anyone wants to learn how the code works, I go through a breakdown here. Enjoy.
