Electric Arc Scene question - Alexx31 - 11-02-2021

Hello,
when I open the example scene for electric arc, it has now also straight lines (which do not like like electric an arcWink ).
Has something basically changed with tyflow?
I opened in Max2022.

Thanks

That's not good Smile I'll try to figure out what's going on...

It has to do with the resample operator. 
When I turn it off, it behaves as expected. 

I tried yesterday also to spawn sparks at the place of „impact“. 
Which needs the resample operator, too, I think. Or spawn by travel. 

It seemed to me also a bit strange, because the never died with using delete operator as expected. I spawned them into a new event and set delete on „particle age“ of 3-1000. 
As soon as I added resample or spawn by travel, their number were growing. 
But maybe these new particles are counted with a new born age and don’t inherit the age of their basic (parent) particles. 
In a nutshell: Not sure how I can just add more particles to the same „path“ and letting them die all together after 3 frames. 
(*as always, I‘m still no expert but fo my bestWink

Thanks
