Spitter's Splattered Spittle

Description
Recently, I saw a spitter particle addon attempting to make the visual indicator (the particles) consistent with the actual hitbox, but it had a few issues. The large spit blob would look too tall, and around the elevated edges, the particle would clip with the elevated surface.

I tried a few workaround to make it look better, but in the end, it just didn't look right.

I took an opposite approach by making the spit blobs smaller, but splattered in a bigger area to avoid those issues.

I thought it looked alright enough to post, or it better be cause I spent like 3 hours attempting different ways to make it look okay, from editing texture, material and to particle, even if all those ended up as my non-preferred solution.

This addon should make the spits more consistent with the actual hitboxes, though not the spitter death pool, because that's in its own world. Sometimes it works, sometimes the pool is 1 meter away from where it appears to be.

Or decrease it if you remove it other user will probably question the removal but anyway if you able fix the frame drop problem I'm fine with any changes.

Is it possible to optimise this? It does have a frame drop problem.

what do you mean follow you? if you mean you look at the same texture no matter from what angle you look at it, then yes. I only changed basically some particle spawn pattern.

Does the texture still follows you if you stare at it?

Ironically, I wanted to tone down the cloud, but I couldn't really do it because I was technically mass producing the puddle, which will come with the cloud. The cloud generated per puddle was already "minimum"

feels like the spitter actually left s cloud of toxic gas instead of acid
i love it
