Weapon bolts get thin-core streaks so they stand apart from stars

In Shattered Rift, weapon bolts were too easy to confuse with stars. A new thin-core readability pass draws each shot as a short, bounded streak of the path it has actually travelled. The streak does not change damage, speed, hit sweeps or cadence, or steer old shots toward a new reticle position. The images show the baseline, then the new pass. They are player-camera captures from nearby moments, not an exact matched comparison. Ally fading beams now follow their emitters and moving targets. Impact placement, close combat, simultaneous weapons and the wider performance review remain open.
