I've got a few questions on the Plasma IPAS from Yost Disk 2. 1. Is there a way to increase the number of segments in the arm of a spark? 2. If the segments can't be increased it seems the Glow filter IPAS would be essential to get correct looking plasma. Is that correct? 3. In order to use the Plasma IPAS to create lighting I should set the # or arcs to 1. Is there a way to control the direction of the lightning? 4. Does anyone have any hints on using the plasma IPAS? Thanks, Tim Krego

1. No. 2. Yes. 3. #arcs=1, but the Schreiber folks have a much better routine for generalized lightning effects.
