Niagara

NiagaraParticle allows you to spawn advanced visual effects using Unreal Engine’s Niagara VFX system. Niagara is a modular particle system designed for real-time simulations such as fire, smoke, sparks, explosions, magic, trails, and complex environmental effects. This class makes it easy to trigger those systems at runtime, giving you dynamic control over visuals, behavior, and performance features like pooling and auto-destructionng.

Constructor

Example

local fx = NiagaraParticle(
    Vector(0, 0, 200),
    Rotator(0, 90, 0),
    "/Game/VFX/MySystem.MySystem",
    true,
    Vector(1, 1, 1),
    true,
    UE.ENCPoolMethod.AutoRelease,
    false
)
