Age Test
Particle View on page 2811 > Click Age Test in an event or add Age Test to the
particle system and then select it.
Age Test lets the particle system check whether a specific amount of time has
passed since the start of the animation, or how long a particle has existed, or
how long a particle has been in the current event, and branch accordingly.
Interface
The user interface appears in the parameters panel, on the right side of the
Particle View dialog.
The first interface element is a drop-down list that lets you choose the type
of age to test. Default=Particle Age.
■ Absolute Age Tests the current frame number in the animation.
