3D particle emitter.
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 the [code]process_material[/code] property to add a [ParticlesMaterial] to configure particle appearance and behavior. Alternatively, you can add a [ShaderMaterial] which will be applied to all particles.

Returns the axis-aligned bounding box that contains all the particles that are active in the current frame.
Returns the [Mesh] that is drawn at index [code]pass[/code].
Restarts the particle emission, clearing existing particles.
Sets the [Mesh] that is drawn at index [code]pass[/code].
Number of particles to emit.
Particle draw order. Uses [enum DrawOrder] values.
[Mesh] that is drawn for the first draw pass.
[Mesh] that is drawn for the second draw pass.
[Mesh] that is drawn for the third draw pass.
[Mesh] that is drawn for the fourth draw pass.
The number of draw passes when rendering particles.
If [code]true[/code], particles are being emitted.
Time ratio between each emission. If [code]0[/code], particles are emitted continuously. If [code]1[/code], all particles are emitted simultaneously.
The particle system's frame rate is fixed to a value. For instance, 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.
If [code]true[/code], results in fractional delta calculation which has a smoother particles display effect.
Amount of time each particle will exist.
If [code]true[/code], particles use the parent node's coordinate space. If [code]false[/code], they use global coordinates.
If [code]true[/code], only [code]amount[/code] particles will be emitted.
Amount of time to preprocess the particles before animation starts. Lets you start the animation some time after particles have started emitting.
[Material] for processing particles. Can be a [ParticlesMaterial] or a [ShaderMaterial].
Emission randomness ratio.
Speed scaling ratio. A value of [code]0[/code] can be used to pause the particles.
The [AABB] that determines the node's region which needs to be visible on screen for the particle system to be active.
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.
Particles are drawn in the order emitted.
Particles are drawn in order of remaining lifetime.
Particles are drawn in order of depth.
Maximum number of draw passes supported.
