You could make a small/medium/large burn ability and choose which one to apply when you go to apply it. You could also just modify the AblPlayParticleEffectTask (or duplicate it and make a AblAutoScalePlayParticleEffect) and have it query table somewhere with the size (or do some simple math) when it goes to scale the particle template.

Honestly, I’d go with the 1st approach - no particle effect is going to be 100% perfect for all body types (even if scaled perfectly), so breaking it up into simple categories and using a “best fit” approach is probably the best.

I might end up going with the first approach, but the second approach sounds a bit cleaner to me so I want to try to it out (might even do both). I created the C++ task and I more or less duplicated the contents of AblPlayParticleEffectTask but I can’t get it to work. I can’t include AbleCorePrivate.h, so I tried moving the logging Macros you set up in it into the task itself but I get compiler errors. Is there a specific way I should approach this? Thanks.
