Declaration

public void Simulate(float t, bool withChildren = true, bool restart = true, bool fixedTimeStep = true);

Parameters

t Time period in seconds to advance the ParticleSystem simulation by. If restart is true, the ParticleSystem will be reset to 0 time, and then advanced by this value. If restart is false, the ParticleSystem simulation will be advanced in time from its current state by this value.
withChildren Fast-forward all child Particle Systems as well.
restart Restart and start from the beginning.
