Plasma Flamer Effect Improvements

I always thought the effect for the plasma flamer barrel was really lame (don't get me started on the ammo inefficiency). It looks like a hose of flat, green steam, with no real pattern or contrasts or glow or vibrancy to it. It's also very unsatisfying that it doesn't really do anything when it hits something, it doesn't splash against surfaces, and it doesn't do anything visually to targets that it hits.

 

So I think it needs some overhauling, ideally give it a more distinct, plasma-like pattern with more contrast to the spray, work in some shades of lime green and blue-green, make it glow a little. Make it actually have some kind of impact against surfaces, or at least give it some sort of appropriate shader effect that envelops target enemies when you hit them with it.

 

I had a go at doing some of this myself, but I mostly just encountered weird results were nothing really seemed to work, so I'm going the lazy rout and seeing if there is someone else more suited to do it.
