ParticleRenderer Inherits from Renderer

Renders particles on to the screen.

This class is a script interface for a particle renderer component.

Variables
particleRenderMode

How particles are drawn.

lengthScale

How much are the particles stretched in their direction of motion.

velocityScale

How much are the particles strectched depending on "how fast they move"

cameraVelocityScale

How much are the particles strected depending on the Camera's speed.

maxParticleSize

Clamp the maximum particle size.

uvAnimationXTile

Set horizontal tiling count.

uvAnimationYTile

Set vertical tiling count.

uvAnimationCycles

Set uv animation cycles

Inherited Functions
GetComponent

Returns the component of Type type if the game object has one attached, null if it doesn't.

GetComponent.<T>

GetComponent

Returns the component with name type if the game object has one attached, null if it doesn't.

GetComponentInChildren

Returns the component of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children using depth first search.

GetComponentInChildren.<T>

GetComponentsInChildren

Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children.

GetComponentsInChildren.<T>

GetComponents

Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject.

GetComponents.<T>

CompareTag

Is this game object tagged tag?

SendMessageUpwards

Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object and on every ancestor of the behaviour

SendMessage

Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object.

BroadcastMessage

Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children.

GetInstanceID

Returns the instance id of the object.

ToString

Returns the name of the game object.

Inherited Messages Sent
OnBecameVisible

OnBecameVisible is called when the object became visible by any camera.

OnBecameInvisible

OnBecameInvisible is called when the object is no longer visible by any camera.

Inherited Class Functions
operator bool

Does the object exist?

Instantiate

Clones the object original and returns the clone.

Instantiate.<T>

Destroy

FindObjectOfType

Returns the first active loaded object of Type type.

operator ==

Compares if two objects refer to the same

operator !=

Compares if two objects refer to a different object

DontDestroyOnLoad

Makes the object target not be destroyed automatically when loading a new scene.
