Name

Description

Enabled

Get / Set if the Particle Systems should be Updated or not.

ParticleSystems

Returns a Linked List of handles to the Particle Systems in this Manager

ParticleSystemsInheritDrawableGameComponent

Get if the Particle Systems are inheriting from DrawableGameComponent or not

SimulationSpeed

Get / Set how fast the Particle System Simulations should run.

Example: 1.0 = normal speed, 0.5 = half speed, 2.0 = double speed.

NOTE: This sets the SimulationSpeed property of each individual Particle System in this Manager to the given value. It will also set a particle system's Simulation Speed when the particle system is re-initialized, and when a new Particle System is added to the Manager in the future.

NOTE: Setting this property only has an effect if the SimulationSpeedIsEnabled property is true.

NOTE: This will be set to zero if a negative value is specified.

SimulationSpeedIsEnabled

Get / Set if the Particle System Manager's SimulationSpeed property should be used for each of the particle systems it contains or not.

Default value is true.

TotalNumberOfActiveParticles

Get the cumulative Number Of Active Particles of all Particle Systems in this Manager

TotalNumberOfParticlesAllocatedInMemory

Get the cumulative Max Number Of Particles allocated in memory by all Particle Systems in the Manager.

TotalNumberOfParticlesBeingDrawn

Get the cumulative Number Of Particles Being Drawn by all Particle Systems in this Manager. This is the total number of Active AND Visible Particles.

NOTE: This ignores whether the Manager is Visible or not.

TotalPerformanceTimeToDoDrawsInMilliseconds

Gets the cumulative time (in milliseconds) it took to perform the Draw() function on each particle system in this manager.

Note: Only particle systems that have their PerformanceProfilingIsEnabled property set to true will be included in this total.

TotalPerformanceTimeToDoUpdatesInMilliseconds

Gets the cumulative time (in milliseconds) it took to perform the Update() function on each particle system in this manager.

Note: Only particle systems that have their PerformanceProfilingIsEnabled property set to true will be included in this total.

UpdatesPerSecond

Get / Set how often the Particle Systems should be Updated.

NOTE: This sets the UpdatesPerSecond property of each individual Particle System in this Manager to the given value. It will also set a particle system's Updates Per Second when the particle system is re-initialized, and when a new Particle System is added to the Manager in the future.

NOTE: Setting this property only has an effect if the UpdatesPerSecondIsEnabled property is true.

NOTE: A value of zero means update the particle systems every time Update() is called.

NOTE: This will be set to zero if a negative value is specified.

UpdatesPerSecondIsEnabled

Get / Set if the Particle System Manager's UpdatesPerSecond property should be used for each of the particle systems it contains or not.

Default value is true.

Visible

Get / Set if this Particle Systems should be drawn or not.

NOTE: Setting this to false causes the particle systems' Draw() function to not be called, including the particle systems' BeforeDraw() and AfterDraw() functions.
