|
A 3D particle emitter.
|
|
</brief_description>
|
|
<description>
|
|
3D particle node used to create a variety of particle systems and effects. [GPUParticles3D] features an emitter that generates some number of particles at a given rate.
|
|
Use [member process_material] to add a [ParticleProcessMaterial] to configure particle appearance and behavior. Alternatively, you can add a [ShaderMaterial] which will be applied to all particles.

<member name="amount" type="int" setter="set_amount" getter="get_amount" default="8">
|
|
The number of particles to emit in one emission cycle. The effective emission rate is [code](amount * amount_ratio) / lifetime[/code] particles per second. Higher values will increase GPU requirements, even if not all particles are visible at a given time or if [member amount_ratio] is decreased.
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] Changing this value will cause the particle system to restart. To avoid this, change [member amount_ratio] instead.
|
|
</member>
|
|
<member name="amount_ratio" type="float" setter="set_amount_ratio" getter="get_amount_ratio" default="1.0">
|
|
The ratio of particles that should actually be emitted. If set to a value lower than [code]1.0[/code], this will set the amount of emitted particles throughout the lifetime to [code]amount * amount_ratio[/code]. Unlike changing [member amount], changing [member amount_ratio] while emitting does not affect already-emitted particles and doesn't cause the particle system to restart. [member amount_ratio] can be used to create effects that make the number of emitted particles vary over time.
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] Reducing the [member amount_ratio] has no performance benefit, since resources need to be allocated and processed for the total [member amount] of particles regardless of the [member amount_ratio]. If you don't intend to change the number of particles emitted while the particles are emitting, make sure [member amount_ratio] is set to [code]1[/code] and change [member amount] to your liking instead.

|
|
<member name="collision_base_size" type="float" setter="set_collision_base_size" getter="get_collision_base_size" default="0.01">
|
|

Only effective if [member ParticleProcessMaterial.collision_mode] is [constant ParticleProcessMaterial.COLLISION_RIGID] or [constant ParticleProcessMaterial.COLLISION_HIDE_ON_CONTACT].
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] Particles always have a spherical collision shape.

</member>
|
|
<member name="draw_order" type="int" setter="set_draw_order" getter="get_draw_order" enum="GPUParticles3D.DrawOrder" default="0">
|
|
Particle draw order. Uses [enum DrawOrder] values.
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] [constant DRAW_ORDER_INDEX] is the only option that supports motion vectors for effects like TAA. It is suggested to use this draw order if the particles are opaque to fix ghosting artifacts.

|
|
<member name="emitting" type="bool" setter="set_emitting" getter="is_emitting" default="true">
|
|
If [code]true[/code], particles are being emitted. [member emitting] can be used to start and stop particles from emitting. However, if [member one_shot] is [code]true[/code] setting [member emitting] to [code]true[/code] will not restart the emission cycle unless all active particles have finished processing. Use the [signal finished] signal to be notified once all active particles finish processing.
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] For [member one_shot] emitters, due to the particles being computed on the GPU, there may be a short period after receiving the [signal finished] signal during which setting this to [code]true[/code] will not restart the emission cycle.
|
|
[b]Tip:[/b] If your [member one_shot] emitter needs to immediately restart emitting particles once [signal finished] signal is received, consider calling [method restart] instead of setting [member emitting].

|
|
<member name="explosiveness" type="float" setter="set_explosiveness_ratio" getter="get_explosiveness_ratio" default="0.0">
|
|
Time ratio between each emission. If [code]0[/code], particles are emitted continuously. If [code]1[/code], all particles are emitted simultaneously.

</member>
|
|
<member name="fixed_fps" type="int" setter="set_fixed_fps" getter="get_fixed_fps" default="30">
|
|
The particle system's frame rate is fixed to a value. For example, changing the value to 2 will make the particles render at 2 frames per second. Note this does not slow down the simulation of the particle system itself.
|
|
</member>
|
|
<member name="fract_delta" type="bool" setter="set_fractional_delta" getter="get_fractional_delta" default="true">
|
|
If [code]true[/code], results in fractional delta calculation which has a smoother particles display effect.

|
</member>
|
|
<member name="interp_to_end" type="float" setter="set_interp_to_end" getter="get_interp_to_end" default="0.0">
|
|
Causes all the particles in this node to interpolate towards the end of their lifetime.
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] This only works when used with a [ParticleProcessMaterial]. It needs to be manually implemented for custom process shaders.
|
|
</member>
|
|
<member name="interpolate" type="bool" setter="set_interpolate" getter="get_interpolate" default="true">
|
|
Enables particle interpolation, which makes the particle movement smoother when their [member fixed_fps] is lower than the screen refresh rate.

</member>
|
|
<member name="lifetime" type="float" setter="set_lifetime" getter="get_lifetime" default="1.0">
|

</member>
|
|
<member name="local_coords" type="bool" setter="set_use_local_coordinates" getter="get_use_local_coordinates" default="false">
|
|
If [code]true[/code], particles use the parent node's coordinate space (known as local coordinates). This will cause particles to move and rotate along the [GPUParticles3D] node (and its parents) when it is moved or rotated. If [code]false[/code], particles use global coordinates; they will not move or rotate along the [GPUParticles3D] node (and its parents) when it is moved or rotated.

</member>
|
|
<member name="one_shot" type="bool" setter="set_one_shot" getter="get_one_shot" default="false">

<member name="sub_emitter" type="NodePath" setter="set_sub_emitter" getter="get_sub_emitter" default="NodePath("")">
|
|
Path to another [GPUParticles3D] node that will be used as a subemitter (see [member ParticleProcessMaterial.sub_emitter_mode]). Subemitters can be used to achieve effects such as fireworks, sparks on collision, bubbles popping into water drops, and more.
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] When [member sub_emitter] is set, the target [GPUParticles3D] node will no longer emit particles on its own.
|
|
</member>
|
|
<member name="trail_enabled" type="bool" setter="set_trail_enabled" getter="is_trail_enabled" default="false">
|
|
If [code]true[/code], enables particle trails using a mesh skinning system. Designed to work with [RibbonTrailMesh] and [TubeTrailMesh].
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] [member BaseMaterial3D.use_particle_trails] must also be enabled on the particle mesh's material. Otherwise, setting [member trail_enabled] to [code]true[/code] will have no effect.
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] Unlike [GPUParticles2D], the number of trail sections and subdivisions is set in the [RibbonTrailMesh] or the [TubeTrailMesh]'s properties.

|
|
The [AABB] that determines the node's region which needs to be visible on screen for the particle system to be active. [member GeometryInstance3D.extra_cull_margin] is added on each of the AABB's axes. Particle collisions and attraction will only occur within this area.
|
|
Grow the box if particles suddenly appear/disappear when the node enters/exits the screen. The [AABB] can be grown via code or with the [b]Particles → Generate AABB[/b] editor tool.
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] [member visibility_aabb] is overridden by [member GeometryInstance3D.custom_aabb] if that property is set to a non-default value.

<signal name="finished">
|
|
<description>
|
|
Emitted when all active particles have finished processing. To immediately emit new particles, call [method restart].
|
|
Never emitted when [member one_shot] is disabled, as particles will be emitted and processed continuously.
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] For [member one_shot] emitters, due to the particles being computed on the GPU, there may be a short period after receiving the signal during which setting [member emitting] to [code]true[/code] will not restart the emission cycle. This delay is avoided by instead calling [method restart].
