PARTICLE SETTINGS
Take control over particle emission, sizes,
rotations, sorting over lifetime and extensive
Source structuring.
Quick Overview
Particle Count
How many particles that should be simulated. Every change will
restructure the Particle Cache.
Overflow Offset
You can Overflow Offset your particles from its Source origin. Each
overflow iteration is based on how many Source Points your Source
has. With Overflow Mode you determine the offset’s global or local
direction.
Source Scatter
Scramble the Source positions within minimum- and maximum
global X-, Y-, and Z range. Using Local Simulation Space found in
Advanced-tab will make them rotate along the Source.
Emission
In the Emission options you can toggle emission. Disable Loop to
not enter another lifetime cycle and enable Disable On Done to
inactivate or destroy the GameObject once the first loop is done.
Emission Rate determines the percentage of total particles that
should emit.
Size
The size of a particle is set by random within minimum- and
maximum float values. Scale will amp the current given random
size. Lifetime Size will set size (Y) over normalized lifetime (X). Array
Size will set size (Y) over normalized array of particles (X).
Rotation
A particle’s initial rotation and rotation over lifetime is set by
random within minimum- and maximum float values. To make a
particle rotate based on its velocity enable Rotate Towards
Direction. The Rotation Normal determines the vectors to rotate
around. A common operation would be to pass in the forward of
the Main Camera’s Transform to always rotate along the camera’s
perspective.
