The 3 controls

Nothing here is baked in. Every value stays live on the object for as long as the file exists, so you can come back and retune it, reorder it against other effects, or take it off and get your original path back exactly as you drew it.

  1. Gap1 to 200, default 14
  2. Wing length1 to 200, default 12
  3. BreakLater branch, Earlier branch
