Variables
| Type | Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
   |
float | DistributeOverNPoints | When set to a non-zero value this will force the particles to only spawn on evenly distributed positions between the two points specified. |
   |
float | DistributeThreshold | When DistributeOverNPoints is set to a non-zero value, this specifies the ratio of particles spawned that should use the distribution. |
   |
FRawDistributionVector | StartLocation | The location the particle should be emitted. |
