__init__()

Default Constructor.

Copy Constructor.

add_spawn_template()
birth_litter()

spawns a new batch of particles

clear_floor_z()
clear_spawn_templates()
clear_to_initial()

Resets the system to its start state by resizing to 0, then resizing back to current size.

get_system_lifespan()
get_tics_since_birth()
induce_labor()

Forces the birth of a particle litter this frame by resetting _tics_since_birth

render()

Populates an attached GeomNode structure with the particle geometry for rendering. This is a wrapper for accessability.

set_spawn_render_node_path()
set_system_age()
set_system_grows_older_flag()
set_system_lifespan()
set_template_system_flag()
soft_start()

Causes system to use birth rate set by set_birth_rate(). If first_birth_delay is specified, it specifies the number of seconds to wait in addition to the birth rate before the first particle is birthed. It is legal for this to be a negative value, which causes the first birth to happen sooner rather than later.

soft_stop()

Causes system to use birth rate set by set_soft_birth_rate()

update()
write_free_particle_fifo()

Write a string representation of this instance to <out>.

write_spawn_templates()

Write a string representation of this instance to <out>.
