following command can kill different particle with same tag at once but only one of each, so don't double spawn

• particle BSL_name kill (kill counts also as die event)

following command reset particle

• particle BSL_name reset

following commands depend on particle events

BSL_name = <Tag> in BINACJBOParticle.xml / <Name> in ENVP	file_name = <Class> in BINACJBOParticle.xml / <ParticleClass> in ENVP
particle BSL_name update	p3_callevent file_name 0
particle BSL_name pulse	p3_callevent file_name 1
particle BSL_name start	p3_callevent file_name 2
particle BSL_name stop	p3_callevent file_name 3
particle BSL_name bgfx_start	p3_callevent file_name 4
particle BSL_name bgfx_stop	p3_callevent file_name 5
particle BSL_name hit_wall	p3_callevent file_name 6
particle BSL_name hit_char	p3_callevent file_name 7
particle BSL_name lifetime	p3_callevent file_name 8
particle BSL_name explode	p3_callevent file_name 9
particle BSL_name brokenlink	p3_callevent file_name 10
particle BSL_name create (create counts also as update event)	p3_callevent file_name 11
particle BSL_name die	p3_callevent file_name 12
particle BSL_name newattractor	p3_callevent file_name 13
particle BSL_name delay_start	p3_callevent file_name 14
particle BSL_name delay_stop	p3_callevent file_name 15

note about wannabe-damaging particle

Damaging particles would make characters "flinch" no matter how little the damage. So, particle are responsible for visualizing the danger and a trigger volume for dealing the damage.

particle auto1fire start
### TV inside function
func void fire_damage(string ai_name)
{
	dprint fire_hurt_konoko
	### ignore the "fire_hurt_konoko"
	### all characters get damage because the TV is registered for all teams (255)
	### ps: this damage cannot be absorbed by a shield
	chr_poison (ai_name, 5, 30, 30);
}

XML structure

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Oni>
   <Objects>
       [...]
   </Objects>
</Oni>

[...] means at least one particle. Paste all particle data into there (this includes <PART Id="..."> and </PART> tag).

example

       <PART Id="8463">
           <Header>
               <Flags></Flags>
               <Position>-1050 45 1610</Position>

           <OSD>
               <Class>env_fire9_e01</Class>
               <Tag>auto1fire</Tag>
               <Flags>13</Flags>
               <DecalScale>1 1</DecalScale>
           </OSD>
       </PART>

tags

• <Flags> : (unknown, usually empty)
• <Position> : (particle is created at this xyz-position)
• <Rotation> : (particle has xyz-rotation (in degrees))
• <Class> : (file name, can have up to 64 characters)
• <Tag> : (name for BSL use, can have up to 48 characters)
• <Flags> :

NotInitiallyCreated

• <Decal> : (first comes X (horizontal) scaling (float value), then a space, then Y (vertical) scaling (float value); "1" seems to show image in original size which can be rather small in-game if actual decal file uses also a small scale)
