Syntax
member(whichCastmember).modelResource(whichModelResource).\
emitter.loop
Description
3D property; when used with a model resource whose type is #particle, this property allows you
to both get and set what happens to particles at the end of their lifetime. A loop value of TRUE
causes particles to be reborn at the end of their lifetime at the emitter location defined by the
emitter’s
region property. A value of FALSE causes the particles to die at the end of their lifetime.
The default setting for this property is TRUE.
Example
In this example, ThermoSystem is a model resource of the type #particle. This statement sets the
emitter.loop property of ThermoSystem to 1, which causes the particles of ThermoSystem to be
continuously emitted.
member("Fires").modelResource("ThermoSystem").emitter.loop = 1
