First steps
GET STARTED.
Use the URP 2D Renderer
Check that the active URP pipeline uses a 2D Renderer Data asset.
Create a ray
Use Tools → Light Rays 2D → Create, or add Light Rays 2D to a GameObject.
Shape and sort it
Choose a Quick Look, edit the quad handles, and set Sorting Layer and Order.
Control colour and blending
Use corner colours or gradients to colour the beam. Choose a blend mode to control how it combines with the scene.
Light the sprites as well
Enable Create Matching Light2D for actual illumination of URP 2D lit sprites. The visible beam alone is not the same as scene lighting.

COMMON QUESTIONS.
For setup or customisation issues, use Discord support.
Ask a product questionDo the rays illuminate sprites automatically?
The visible ray and scene illumination are separate. Enable Create Matching Light2D and use lit sprite materials when illumination is needed.
Can I change the shape without redrawing a texture?
The supplied manual describes Manual Quad handles, shape presets, and sprite or collider emitters.
What should I check when a ray is invisible?
Check intensity, sorting, scale and blend mode. For pink materials, check URP and the 2D Renderer first.
