 However, in some animations you may notice a strange flicker or other visually disturbing effects. This can be an indication that the path is substantially changing from frame to frame. In such a case, try the **Circular optimization** option. This has some additional rules to try to enforce beam path consistency. You can use this even if the object is not circular or curved. However, in some animations you may notice a strange flicker or other visually disturbing effects.
