The trail renderer is used to make trails behind objects in the Scene as they move about.
This class is a script interface for a trail renderer component.
| alignment | Select whether the trail will face the camera, or the orientation of the Transform Component. |

| colorGradient | Set the color gradient describing the color of the trail at various points along its length. |
| emitting | Creates trails when the GameObject moves. |
| endColor | Set the color at the end of the trail. |
| endWidth | The width of the trail at the end of the trail. |
| generateLightingData | Configures a trail to generate Normals and Tangents. With this data, Scene lighting can affect the trail via Normal Maps and the Unity Standard Shader, or your own custom-built Shaders. |
| maskInteraction | Specifies how the TrailRenderer interacts with SpriteMask. |
| minVertexDistance | Set the minimum distance the trail can travel before a new vertex is added to it. |
| numCapVertices | Set this to a value greater than 0, to get rounded corners on each end of the trail. |
| numCornerVertices | Set this to a value greater than 0, to get rounded corners between each segment of the trail. |
| positionCount | Get the number of line segments in the trail. |
| shadowBias | Apply a shadow bias to prevent self-shadowing artifacts. The specified value is the proportion of the trail width at each segment. |

| textureScale | A multiplier for the UV coordinates of the trail texture. |
| time | How long does the trail take to fade out. |
| widthCurve | Set the curve describing the width of the trail at various points along its length. |
| widthMultiplier | Set an overall multiplier that is applied to the TrailRenderer.widthCurve to get the final width of the trail. |
| AddPosition | Adds a position to the trail. |
| AddPositions | Add an array of positions to the trail. |
| BakeMesh | Creates a snapshot of TrailRenderer and stores it in mesh. |
| Clear | Removes all points from the TrailRenderer. Useful for restarting a trail from a new position. |

| materials | Returns all the instantiated materials of this object. |
| motionVectorGenerationMode | Specifies the mode for motion vector rendering. |
| probeAnchor | If set, Renderer will use this Transform's position to find the light or reflection probe. |
| rayTracingMode | Describes how this renderer is updated for ray tracing. |
| realtimeLightmapIndex | The index of the real-time lightmap applied to this renderer. |
| realtimeLightmapScaleOffset | The UV scale & offset used for a real-time lightmap. |
| receiveShadows | Does this object receive shadows? |

| sharedMaterials | All the shared materials of this object. |
| sortingLayerID | Unique ID of the Renderer's sorting layer. |
| sortingLayerName | Name of the Renderer's sorting layer. |
| sortingOrder | Renderer's order within a sorting layer. |
| staticShadowCaster | Is this renderer a static shadow caster? |
| worldToLocalMatrix | Matrix that transforms a point from world space into local space (Read Only). |
| BroadcastMessage | Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children. |
| CompareTag | Checks the GameObject's tag against the defined tag. |
| GetComponent | Gets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified. |
| GetComponentInChildren | Gets a reference to a component of type T on the same GameObject as the component specified, or any child of the GameObject. |
