Detailed Description

Describes the NxParameterized::Interface for 'ApexEmitterAssetParameters' : APEX Emitter Asset Parameters.

This class contains the parameters for the APEX Emitter asset. The APEX Emitter is sometimes described as a shaped APEX Emitter because it contains the box, sphere, and sphere shell shapes. It also includes an explicit shape that allows for preauthored particles positions and velocities and runtime particle injections.

ApexEmitterAssetParameters contains 57 fully qualified names

F32 ApexEmitterAssetParameters::emitterDuration

'emitterDuration' : Emitter duration time (in seconds)

Specifies a duration (in seconds) that the emitter will emit for after being enabled. After the specified duration, the emitter will turn off, unless it has already been explicitly turned off via an API call. The special value 0.0f means there is no duration, and the emitter will remain on until explicitly turned off.

It is used to reduce discontinuity in case of fast moving Emitters, by limiting particles generation step max. time by inverse of this value.
