Here's a little bonus: the From Max input of the Map Range node at 18:30 can be used in the range of 0 to 1 as another way to trim the lightning without the wiggling effect.

i am an an engineer so the moment u started explaining the graph and equation i was sold, i knew i was going to understand this... and it did....

Tip:
when blender crashes, do a recover from file menu and recover last session or check the autosave this helps a lot.

Great Tut though!

You are far more advanced in knowledge of geo nodes than any other youtuber. You will be famous one day, keep it up. If you did a paid course to learn geo nodes, i would absolutely buy it no matter the cost. Following tutorials can only take me so far, I don't actually understand how to create complex objects like this.

you're way too powerful! Stahp! xD
I can't stop admiring your geometry node creativity. I've gotten so comfortable with the shader nodes, but just can't get into geometry nodes for some reason. You're definitely helping me :>

2 small tips :
- instead of using a multiply operator to scale a vector, you can use the "Scale" operator ;)
- you can type "tau" instead of "2*pi"

MaxEdge I want to thank you for your fantastic tutorial that helped me build a very important scenario for me.

Thanks to this tutorial I managed to make a very dynamic and volatile lightning system with which I can give visual reality to the elements inside them that serve as a distribution point for these lightning bolts.

Your analogy and mathematical construction with geometry Nodes is fantastic. I confess that I was more in the ideology of copying and reproducing. Then I made other appointments to know how to make internal adjustments in each group. I select the NODE or set of NODES and type CTRL+J and then type N to open the extra control panel, go to NODE, mark "COLOR", then in "LABEL" I write what these NODES control, for example : Number of Forks, Rotation of Forks, Length of Forks and etc etc.

I now have a matrix file and I hope to use it a lot in future projects.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Thank you, great tutorial, all works well, until 19:40. "Curve radius" do not transfer to Map Range node. I using Blender 3.1 Alpha (from official site)

I love your tutorials, about the blender crashing part. You can recover progress through Recover > Auto-Save (if it's enabled) > Then Select your Project's most recent save file. It doesn't save stuff that you baked btw but it can save some progress if you have Auto-save enabled.

Very clear explanation and I really appreciate the maths explanation to make it clear. Great job!

Amazing, Best Lightning tutorial out there, thank you!
1 question, i might have made a small mistake somewhere along the line, for some reason some of the instances (mainly on the 2e fork) are not perfectly lined up with the main lightning. there is a little gap at the start of the forks. does anybody know how to fix this ? Thanks !!
