Particle system component for A-Frame.
Examples
Properties
This component exposes only a subset of the ShaderParticleEngine API.
| Property | Description | Default Value |
|--------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------|
| preset | Preset configuration. Possible values are: default, dust, snow, rain. | default |
| maxAge | The particle's maximum age in seconds. | 6 |
| positionSpread | Describes this emitter's position variance on a per-particle basis. | 0 0 0 |
| type | The default distribution this emitter should use to control its particle's spawn position and force behaviour. Possible values are 1 (box), 2 (sphere), 3 (disc) | 1 (box) |
| rotationAxis | Describes this emitter's axis of rotation. Possible values are x, y and z. | x |
| rotationAngle | The angle of rotation, given in radians. Dust preset is 3.14. | 0 |
| rotationAngleSpread | The amount of variance in the angle of rotation per-particle, given in radians. | 0 |
| accelerationValue | Describes this emitter's base acceleration. | 0, -10, 0 |
| accelerationSpread | Describes this emitter's acceleration variance on a per-particle basis. | 10 0 10 |
| velocityValue | Describes this emitter's base velocity. | 0 25 0 |
| velocitySpread | Describes this emitter's acceleration variance on a per-particle basis. | 10 7.5 10 |
| dragValue | Number between 0 and 1 describing drag applied to all particles. | 0 |
| dragSpread | Number describing drag variance on a per-particle basis. | 0 |
| dragRandomise | WHen a particle is re-spawned, whether it's drag should be re-randomised or not. Can incur a performance hit. | false |
| color | Describes a particle's color. This property is a "value-over-lifetime" property, meaning an array of values can be given to describe specific value changes over a particle's lifetime. | #0000FF,#FF0000 |
| size | Describes a particle's size. | 1 |
| direction | The direction of the emitter. If value is 1, emitter will start at beginning of particle's lifecycle. If value is -1, emitter will start at end of particle's lifecycle and work it's way backwards. | 1 |
| duration | The duration in seconds that this emitter should live for. If not specified, the emitter will emit particles indefinitely. | null |
| enabled | When true the emitter will emit particles, when false it will not. This value can be changed dynamically during a scene. While particles are emitting, they will disappear immediately when set to false. | true |
| particleCount | The total number of particles this emitter will hold. NOTE: this is not the number of particles emitted in a second, or anything like that. The number of particles emitted per-second is calculated by particleCount / maxAge (approximately!) | 1000 |
| texture | The texture used by this emitter. | ./images/star2.png |
| randomise | When a particle is re-spawned, whether it's position should be re-randomised or not. Can incur a performance hit. | false |
| opacity | Either a single number to describe the opacity of a particle. | 1 |
| blending | The blending mode of the particles. Possible values are 0 (no blending), 1 (normal), 2 (additive), 3 (subtractive), 4 (multiply) | 2 |
| maxParticleCount | | 250000 |
