Description

Could the Alt Start mechanism used with particle
generators be changed to allow as many Alt Start
positions as needed? For example a gib explosion would
require several different types of particle. This would
allow many different model particles to share the same
generator, reducing the number of active generators
while also allowing much more detailed effects.

What I suggest is something like:

Generator {
...

ALT START = .4 // The randomness of this start position
Stage{ ... }
Stage{ ... }
Stage{ ... }
ALT END

ALT START = .6
Stage{ ... }
Stage{ ... }
ALT END
}

Doomsday then picks one group of stages as a random alt
start.
