public ParticleSystem.LifetimeByEmitterSpeedModule lifetimeByEmitterSpeed;

Description

Script interface for the Particle System Lifetime By Emitter Speed module.

This module controls the initial lifetime of each particle based on the speed of the emitter when the particle was spawned.

Particle System modules do not need to be reassigned back to the system; they are interfaces and not independent objects.
