Fields
Name	Type	Description
`persistent`	Bool	Determines whether or not this item will be saved to the server.
`UpdateOrder`	Int	Controls the order in which this component is updated.
`Enabled`	Bool	Controls whether or not this component is enabled. Some components stop their functionality when this field is disabled, but some don't.
`Material`	Material	The material the particles should have.
`Mesh`	Mesh	The mesh object to GPU instance to all particle points and render.
`Alignment`	MeshRenderBufferRenderer.MeshAlignment	How to align the meshes with the particle transforms.

Attach to a slot, add to the renderer slot in a Component:ParticleSystem, and adjust the values to make the desired effect from this component.
