Classes

EmitterSystem

System that updates all particle emitters

ParticlesMeshBuilderSystem

A system that builds the vertex and index buffers for particles by aggregating all the particles from an emitter

ParticleSpawnSystem

System that handles spawning new particles for all emitters

ParticleSystem

System that updates all particles

Structs

BurstEmission

An emitter with this component emits particles in bursts. A burst is a particle event where a number of particles are all emitted at the same time. A cycle is a single occurrence of a burst.

EmitterCircleSource

Spawns particles inside a circle on the X/Y plane.

EmitterConeSource

Spawns particles in a cone. Particles are emitted from the base of the cone, which is a circle on the X/Z plane.

EmitterHemisphereSource

Spawns particles inside a hemisphere volume.

EmitterInitialNonUniformRotation

Sets the initial rotations on the X, Y, and Z axes for particles to a random values in the ranges specified by AngleX, AngleX, and AngleX respectively

EmitterInitialNonUniformScale

Multiplies the X, Y, and Z scales of the source particle by random values in the ranges specified by ScaleX, ScaleY, and ScaleZ respectively

EmitterInitialRotation

Sets the initial rotation for particles to a random value in the range specified by Angle. This axis of rotation is determined from the particle's direction of travel.

EmitterInitialScale

Multiplies the scale of the source particle by a random value in the range specified by Scale

EmitterInitialSpeed

Sets the initial speed of the source particle by a random value in the range specified by Speed

EmitterRectangleSource

Spawns particles inside of a unit rectangle centered at the origin on the X/Y plane.

EmitterSphereSource

Spawns particles inside a sphere volume.

InitialColor

Sets the initial color of the particles by linearly interpolating between ColorMin and ColorMax by a random value between 0.0 and 1.0

Looping

An emitter with this component repeats its particle simulation each time it reaches the end of its duration time.

ParticleEmitter

The core particle emitter component. Adding this component to an entity turns the entity into an emitter with the specified characteristics. You can add other components (for example, EmitterInitialScale, EmitterConeSource, and so on) to the same entity after the initial emission to further control how particles are emitted.

ParticleMaterial

Material used to render the particles.

ParticleMesh

Mesh used for each particle. An emitter entity that does not have this component will use billboards for particles that always face the camera.

RandomizeDirection

Blends particle directions of travel towards a random direction using Value. When Value is 0, this has no effect. When Value is 1, the particle direction is completely random.

RandomizePosition

Moves particle spawn position by a random amount, up to Value. When Value is 0, this has no effect.

RandomSeed

Allows for specifying the seed for all randomness used in the emitter's particle simulation so unique, repeatable effects can be created.

Range

An inclusive range of values. Start should be less than or equal to End.

StartDelay

Delays the particle system from starting emission by a random value in the range specified by Delay.
