Detailed Description

Automatically created by the particle system to finish playing a particle effect.

This is needed to play a particle effect to the end, when a game object with a particle effect on it gets deleted. This component should never be instantiated manually.

Member Function Documentation

◆ GetLocalBounds()

ezResult ezParticleFinisherComponent::GetLocalBounds ( ezBoundingBoxSphere out_bounds,
bool &  out_bAlwaysVisible,
ezMsgUpdateLocalBounds ref_msg 
)
overridevirtual

Called by ezRenderComponent::OnUpdateLocalBounds().

If EZ_SUCCESS is returned, out_bounds and out_bAlwaysVisible will be integrated into the ezMsgUpdateLocalBounds ref_msg, otherwise the out values are simply ignored.

Implements ezRenderComponent.

◆ OnDeactivated()

void ezParticleFinisherComponent::OnDeactivated ( )
overrideprotectedvirtual

This method is called when the component gets deactivated.

Upon destruction, a component that is active first gets deactivated. Therefore OnDeactivated() should be used for typical game code cleanup.

OnActivated(), OnDeactivated(), Initialize(), Deinitialize(), OnSimulationStarted()
