Declarationpublic int GetParticles(out NativeArray<Particle> particles, int size, int offset); Parameters Parameter Description particles Output particle buffer, containing the current particle state. size The number of elements that are read from the Particle System. offset The offset into the active particle list, from which to copy the particles. Returns
int The number of particles written to the input particle array (the number of particles currently alive).
DescriptionGets the particles of this Particle System.
This method is allocation free as long the input "particles" array is preallocated once (see example below). The method only gets the particles that are currently alive in the Particle System when it is called, so it may only get a small part of the particles array.
