This node will go through all the particles that are included in the specified groups and set output pins accordingly for each of the particles in the particle stream.

 

 

[Inputs]

 

Enabled - Enable or disable node evaluation.

 

Part Group - Select particle group you want to access.

 

Filter By RegEx - You can use regular expression to include particle groups in the output.

 

Particle Filter - An additional filter that allows you to easily filter particles that are newly created or the ones that have just entered into a new particle group.
