Beams should use a NumberSequence for size

Feature Requests Engine Features
#1

As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to make beams with varying widths all the way through the beam.

Currently, beams use two properties to control size: Width0 and Width1. These properties do not allow for full customization of variation in the width of the beam. Using a NumberSequence for size would allow for far more flexibility in using beams.

Since implementing this feature could potentially break a lot of beams, I also suggest an Enum in a property so developers can choose how they want to configure the width of their beams.

Maybe it could be made compatible with the current behavior without using an Enum if they just automatically converted Width0 and Width1 to a NumberSequence with two keypoints on either end and deprecate the old properties. :slight_smile:
