Bases: ReferenceCount

Inheritance diagram

enum emissionType

enumerator ET_EXPLICIT = 0

all particles are emitted in parallel along the same vector

enumerator ET_RADIATE = 1

all particles radiate away from a single point

enumerator ET_CUSTOM = 2

particle launch vectors are dependent on particular derived emitter
