Description

It would be extremely usefull if particle types could be
randomised within a generator. Using a random argument
in the first particle stage that is then copyied through
the rest of the stages till a different type is specified.
Obviously this would only apply for texture & model
particles.

EG:

Generator {
State = "TROO_XDIE2"
Flags = blendrsub | static
Speed = 18
Spawn age = 4
Max age = 2260
Particles = 20
Spawn rate = 5
Vector rnd = 10
Init Vector Rnd = 6
Vector { .1 0 12 }
Stage {
Type = "pt_tex05"

TypeRnd = 3      // The type is selected at 
random from the specified type + 3 (zero index)
Radius = 1
Color { .2 .2 1 .1 }
Tics = 4
Gravity = -.1
Resistance = .06
}

// The following 2 stages have no type specified so the
random type chosen in stage 0 will be used

Stage { Radius = 2 Color { .2 .2 .2 .1 } Tics = 80 }
Stage { Radius = 5 Color { .2 1 1 .3 } Tics = 1 }
Stage { Type = "pt_tex11"      // A type has been 
specified so stop using the random type
Flags = vflat | flat
Radius = 20
Color { .2 1 1 .9 }
Tics = 10
}
}
