A Matter of Scale

The attached image is a character walking up to a Class 5 powerplant for Starship design. At 15 meters tall by 30 meters to a side it's a building in and of itself (I think it's bigger than the office block I work in...), intended to power Super-Capital starships larger than Fleet Carriers or Supertankers.
It still needs the visual effects of the Tesla-esque lightning bolts and lighting inside the central chamber (Yeah, I know it's not a realistic powerplant, but I'm not aiming for simulation realism here). The problem is I'm not sure how I'm going to eventually make the design system function, and I don't want to spend a lot of time working out effects that won't work in the game engine.
