Inputs to customise

  • In-image HUD text strings are quoted explicitly so the model renders them legibly rather than approximating.
  • The energy ability's color (purple) is specified as the primary light source so reflections on nearby surfaces are consistent.
  • Debris and explosion elements include physical descriptors (concrete chunks, trajectory) to avoid generic particle-effect rendering.
