Skript-Particle is intended to provide syntax for creating complex shapes with particles. Competent and powerful particle syntaxes exist in addons like SkBee, but creating shapes requires a lot more effort and know-how.
They're also inherently slower and less performant than Java, even without considering the usual need to re-calculate the shape each time it's drawn.
The goal for Skript-Particle is to provide easy-to-use, flexible, and powerful syntax to create particle shapes.
The basic structure is a set of various shapes, like circles, lines, polygons, and more. These shapes are relative to a center point and aren't positioned anywhere specific.
The drawing syntax takes a set of shapes and a location and draws all the shapes relative to that location.
This allows the definition of a bunch of shapes that only need to be defined once and can then be drawn in many places and in many rotations.
Since shapes can be rotated as a group, it's also very simple to change the rotation and orientation of your shapes with a single line.
### Syntax available on [skUnity](https://docs.skunity.com/syntax/search/addon:skript-particle) and [SkriptHub](http://skripthub.net/docs/?addon=Skript-Particle)
Here's some example code:
```sk
command /magic:
trigger:
set {_shapes::outer-circle} to a circle of radius 2.225
set {_shapes::inner-circle} to a circle of radius 2
set {_shapes::tiny-circle} to a circle of radius 0.875
set {_shapes::triangle-1} to a triangle with radius 2
set {_shapes::triangle-2} to a triangle with radius 2
rotate shapes {_shapes::triangle-2} around y axis by 60 degrees
set particle of {_shapes::*} to electric spark
loop 200 times:
set {_view} to vector from yaw player's yaw and pitch player's pitch
set {_yaw} to yaw of {_view}
# figure out the rotation needed to rotate the shape
set {_rotation} to rotation from vector(0, 1, 0) to {_view}
draw the shape {_shapes::*} at player's eye location ~ {_view}:
# only happens for this draw call, the original shape is not modified
# note that this is called once for each shape, hence `drawn shape` and not `drawn shapes`
rotate drawn shape by {_rotation}
# the shape takes the shortest path to rotate to the desired rotation, but that causes it to appear to rotate as we turn.
# so we'll correct for it by rotating the shape around the y axis by the yaw of the player
rotate drawn shape around relative y axis by -1 * {_yaw}
wait 1 tick
```
## Current Features:
- Shapes:
- Bezier Curves
- Circles, Ellipses, Spheres, and Ellipsoids
- Cylinders and Elliptical Cylinders
- Arcs and Spherical Caps
- Helices
- Lines
- 2D Regular and Irregular Polygons and Prisms
- Regular polyhedra
- Rectangles and cuboids
- Drawing:
- Three styles: outline, surface, and filled. Some shapes only support one or two of these styles.
- Rotation to any orientation.
- Scaling and offsetting.
- Drawing multiple shapes at once.
- Options for who sees the particles (player specific)
- Custom particle data and density per shape
- Full support for SkBee's particle data syntaxes
- Debug axes for clear visualization of the orientation of your shape.
- Shapes are only calculated when they actually change, so you can draw the same shape many times without any performance hit.
- Option to make all calculation and drawing synchronous (async by default)
- Ability to continuously draw a shape for a timespan (async only)
- Dynamic locations, so particles can follow an entity with no additional user effort
- Particles:
- Expression for custom particles
- Section for custom particles
- Animation:
- Ability to stretch out drawing a shape over a timespan
## Planned Features:
- Shapes:
- Custom shapes defined by a function
- "Common but difficult to code" shapes like hearts, stars, and more
- Drawing:
- Combining shapes into a custom shape to be drawn as a single shape.
- Gradient colour fields, with custom colour nodes.
- Animation:
- Set up a pre-made animation in a custom structure, play back with one draw call
