Description of feature
I think giving the tractor beams a texture would be better, and here are 3 main reasons why:

• color customization (if people want to make color themes, they could change the beam's color to, let's say green, too)
• the beams would probably be visible with almost any shader
• might fix #795

You could just put the color in the texture, and when the texture gets used it just changes the opacity of it so you can still see through it.

You’ll be able to change the color of the tractor beams in an upcoming update, and I doubt having them texture based would fix the visual glitch.
