the branching is created by using the ‘aux system’ which can be set to allow the particles to emit particles.
however to get that those to branch again will be difficult, if not impossible….
the advanced lightning effect can create branch-like forms. set the glow settings to 0, enable decay main core and scrub the decay property yo see if that could pass as a growing tree branch. fiddle around with other settings like core radius, turbulence and forking to see if it might work….
