Firing Anim and beams appear behind buildings, how to fix this?

Frank123

I made a giant tower (has no turret) that fires a temporal beam at enemies, everything works well, but the firing Anim and the beam appear behind the building. That looks really weird especially when it fires at south targets, as if the beam is penetrating the tower.
I've changed the PrimaryFireFLH and the ZAdjust of the firing Anim but that doesn't help.
I would be grateful if someone could give me some clues to fix this problem.

If the firing anim is on the building and not the weapon, try the YSort tag for it...

Hi! The Anim is on the weapon, not the ActiveAnim, so I don't think Ysort/ZAdjust would work...

Could you take a screenshot or a short video to better understand the problem?

Then I'd try more ZAdjust...

You could try Layer=air in art.ini but that can overlap some stuff in front of it too.
