This property modifies the effect of wind zones and Particle System Force Fields on particles emitted by the system.


Properties
For some properties in this section, you can use different modes to set their value. For information on the modes you can use, refer to Vary Particle System properties over time.
Property | Function |
|---|---|
| Multiplier | Scale value applied to wind zone forces. |
| Influence Filter | Choose whether to include Force Fields based on a Layer Mask, or via an explicit List. |
| List | Define an explicit list of Force Fields that can affect this Particle System. This appears when the Influence Filter is set to List. |
| Influence Mask | Use a Layer Mask to determine which Force Fields affect this Particle System. This appears when the Influence Filter is set to Layer Mask. This is set to Everything by default, but you can enable or disable the following options individually: - Nothing (automatically unticks all other options, turning them off) - Everything (automatically ticks all other options, turning them on) - Default - TransparentFX - Ignore Raycast - Water - UI - PostProcessing |
