Title: Making sprint trail longer?
Post by: Kobiesan on February 06, 2018, 04:44:00 am
I'm editing ribbontrail.m2 which is what sprint uses. I'm trying to make the trail last longer but I can't seem to find the correct field. Does anyone know?

RibbonTrail.m2 doesn't have a ribbon_emitter row

It doesn't have a dropdown? How do I edit it?

It's quite intuitive, to be honest. You are not paying attention. There is an option called length (it's under "res"). It's self explanatory and quite relevant to me. If you increase the number, the ribbon will be longer.

Don't be afraid to play with the numbers. Trial and error. That's how we all learned here.
