Syntax

class UParticleModuleLocation : public UParticleModuleLocationBase

Variables

	Name	Description
float	DistributeOverNPoints	When set to a non-zero value this will force the particles to only spawn on evenly distributed positions between the two points specified.
float	DistributeThreshold	When DistributeOverNPoints is set to a non-zero value, this specifies the ratio of particles spawned that should use the distribution.
FRawDistributio...	StartLocation	The location the particle should be emitted.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	UParticleModuleLocation ( const FObjectInitializer& ObjectIn... )

Functions

		Name	Description
	void	InitializeDefaults()	Initializes the default values for this property
	void	SpawnEx ( FParticleEmitterInstance* Owne..., int32 Offset, float SpawnTime, FRandomStream* InRandomStream, FBaseParticle* ParticleBase )	Extended version of spawn, allows for using a random stream for distribution value retrieval

Overridden from UParticleModule

		Name	Description
	void	Render3DPreview ( FParticleEmitterInstance* Owne..., const FSceneView* View, FPrimitiveDrawInterface* PDI )	Render the modules 3D visualization helper primitive.
	void	Spawn ( FParticleEmitterInstance* Owne..., int32 Offset, float SpawnTime, FBaseParticle* ParticleBase )	Called on a particle that is freshly spawned by the emitter.

Overridden from UObject

		Name	Description
	void	PostEditChangeProperty ( FPropertyChangedEvent& PropertyCha... )	Called when a property on this object has been modified externally
	void	PostInitProperties()	Called after the C++ constructor and after the properties have been initialized, including those loaded from config.
