Syntax

[Unmanaged]
public class ParticleSystem : BinaryAsset

Constructors

ParticleSystem()

Initializes a new instance of the ParticleSystem.

Declaration

public ParticleSystem()

Properties

Duration

The animation duration (in seconds).

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public float Duration { get; }

Property Value

System.Single

DurationFrames

The animation duration (in frames).

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public int DurationFrames { get; }

Property Value

System.Int32

FramesPerSecond

The frames amount per second of the timeline animation.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public float FramesPerSecond { get; }

Property Value

System.Single

Methods

Init(ParticleEmitter, Single, Single)

Initializes the particle system that plays a single particles emitter. This can be used only for virtual assets.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public void Init(ParticleEmitter emitter, float duration, float fps = 60F)

Parameters

ParticleEmitter emitter The emitter to playback.

System.Single duration The timeline animation duration in seconds.

System.Single fps The amount of frames per second of the timeline animation.

LoadTimeline()

Loads the serialized timeline data.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public byte[] LoadTimeline()

Returns

System.Byte[] The output surface data, or empty if failed to load.

SaveTimeline(Byte[])

Saves the serialized timeline data to the asset.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public bool SaveTimeline(byte[] data)

Parameters

System.Byte[] data The timeline data container.

Returns

System.Boolean true failed to save data; otherwise, false.

Spawn(Actor, Transform, Boolean)

Spawns the particles at the given location.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public ParticleEffect Spawn(Actor parent, Transform transform, bool autoDestroy = false)

Parameters

Actor parent The parent actor (can be null to link it to the first loaded scene).

Transform transform The spawn transform.

System.Boolean autoDestroy If set to true effect be auto-destroyed after duration.

Returns

ParticleEffect The spawned effect.

Spawn(Actor, Vector3, Quaternion, Boolean)

Spawns the particles at the given location.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public ParticleEffect Spawn(Actor parent, Vector3 position, Quaternion rotation, bool autoDestroy = false)

Parameters

Actor parent The parent actor (can be null to link it to the first loaded scene).

Vector3 position The spawn position.

Quaternion rotation The spawn rotation.

System.Boolean autoDestroy If set to true effect be auto-destroyed after duration.

Returns

ParticleEffect The spawned effect.

Spawn(Actor, Vector3, Boolean)

Spawns the particles at the given location.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public ParticleEffect Spawn(Actor parent, Vector3 position, bool autoDestroy = false)

Parameters

Actor parent The parent actor (can be null to link it to the first loaded scene).

Vector3 position The spawn position.

System.Boolean autoDestroy If set to true effect be auto-destroyed after duration.

Returns

ParticleEffect The spawned effect.

Spawn(Transform, Boolean)

Spawns the particles at the given location.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public ParticleEffect Spawn(Transform transform, bool autoDestroy = false)

Parameters

Transform transform The spawn transform.

System.Boolean autoDestroy If set to true effect be auto-destroyed after duration.

Returns

ParticleEffect The spawned effect.

Spawn(Vector3, Quaternion, Boolean)

Spawns the particles at the given location.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public ParticleEffect Spawn(Vector3 position, Quaternion rotation, bool autoDestroy = false)

Parameters

Vector3 position The spawn position.

Quaternion rotation The spawn rotation.

System.Boolean autoDestroy If set to true effect be auto-destroyed after duration.

Returns

ParticleEffect The spawned effect.

Spawn(Vector3, Boolean)

Spawns the particles at the given location.

Declaration

[Unmanaged]
public ParticleEffect Spawn(Vector3 position, bool autoDestroy = false)

Parameters

Vector3 position The spawn position.

System.Boolean autoDestroy If set to true effect be auto-destroyed after duration.

Returns

ParticleEffect The spawned effect.
