Detailed Description

This emitter emits particles in a random direction from within a cylinder area, where the cylinder is oriented along the Z-axis.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ CylinderEmitter()

Ogre::CylinderEmitter::CylinderEmitter ( ParticleSystem psys)

Member Function Documentation

◆ _initParticle()

void Ogre::CylinderEmitter::_initParticle ( Particle pParticle)
overridevirtual

Initialises a particle based on the emitter's approach and parameters.

Remarks
See the _getEmissionCount method for details of why there is a separation between 'requested' emissions and actual initialised particles.
Parameters
pParticlePointer to a particle which must be initialised based on how this emitter starts particles. This is passed as a pointer rather than being created by the emitter so the ParticleSystem can reuse Particle instances, and can also set defaults itself.

Reimplemented from Ogre::ParticleEmitter.
