//
//  Smoke, steam, dust, spray, fireflies, fire. One emitter with every
//  dial named in plain words, and six recipes so you can have something
//  believable running before you understand any of them.
//
//  Almost everybody's first particle script is one they were given, and
//  most people keep using it for years without ever finding out what the
//  numbers do, because the usual version is a wall of constants with no
//  names. This one is meant to be the last one you need to copy: set
//  RECIPE to a number and it works; set RECIPE to 0 and every dial below
//  is yours.
//
//  Plain LSL.
// =====================================================================


// ---------------------------------------------------------------------
//  The quick way
// ---------------------------------------------------------------------

// 0 = ignore this line, use exactly what is written below
// 1 = smoke, from a chimney
// 2 = steam, from a kettle or a vent
// 3 = dust, motes hanging in a sunbeam
// 4 = spray, at the foot of a waterfall
// 5 = fireflies, on a summer evening
// 6 = fire
//
// Any number but 0 overwrites the settings below when the script starts.
// Change the number, save, and look. When one of them is nearly right,
// set RECIPE back to 0 and tune the lines by hand.

// ---------------------------------------------------------------------
//  Three things worth knowing before you spend an evening on this
//
//  Particles are drawn by the viewer, not by the region, so they cost
//  the sim almost nothing and cost the person looking at them quite a
//  lot. A hundred emitters is not a lag problem for your region; it is a
//  lag problem for everyone who visits it. RATE and PER_BURST are the
//  two numbers that decide how expensive you are being.
//
//  Every viewer has a limit on how many particles it will draw at once,
//  and visitors set it themselves. Your careful plume may be thinner for
//  somebody else, or absent. Never build something that only reads
//  correctly if the particles are there.
//
//  A particle is always a flat square facing the camera. It cannot be
//  turned, it cannot be lit, and it does not go behind things properly
//  when it overlaps other transparent surfaces. Fighting any of those
//  three is how afternoons disappear.
