Particle System component as seen in the Scene Inspector


This article or section is a Stub. You can help the Resonite Wiki by expanding it. The ParticleSystem component acts as the interface between a particle style and one or more particle emitter.

Usage

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.
MaxParticleCount Int The maximum particles controlled by this component that can exist at any given time.
Style ParticleStyle The ParticleStyle component that this component is using.
SimulationSpace direct RootSpace The coordinate space the emitted particles will do calculations and physics under. (They are not actually placed under this slot, but they visually behave as though they are).

Behaviour

With a particle system, multiple emitters can use the same source ParticleStyle. Alternatively, multiple ParticleSystems can be used with the same style but different simulation spaces to avoid the need for multiple style components. This is especially handy when properties of the style need to be dynamically changed as it can be done from a centralized location.
