Match laser hit flashes to origin laser colour

[Dez E]

Currently in XWVM, when a laser hits a craft, there is a small blue flash effect to show the physical hit. This is currently a light blue colour for all lasers regardless of type and origin, however I suggest that this is coded to the same colour as the original laser.

This would aid with consistency, and provides a subtle reinforcement to the player that the type of laser they have used (i.e. high/low power laser/ion) has had an effect.

The blue flash is supposed to be the shield deflecting the laser as seen in TIE Fighter short.

This cosmetic detail should be discussed.

They did have this in XWA. Does anybody know if they had a specific color in the movies? Otherwise I don't really have an opinion either way, so long as it shows me that the shields have been hit.

in rogue one the laser hits are colored by their weapon origin, i.e. green lasers create green shield explosions.
