Syntax

public abstract class Effect : VehicleComponent

Remarks

Effects inherit from VehicleComponent and provide visual feedback for various vehicle operations such as exhaust particles, lighting, skidmarks, and surface interactions. Each effect is managed by the EffectManager and can be independently enabled/disabled through state settings.

All effect components follow the standard VehicleComponent lifecycle including initialization, update cycles, and LOD management for performance optimization. Effects typically respond to vehicle state changes and wheel conditions to provide appropriate visual feedback.
