Particle Script Generator
======================

Introduction
=========
The Particle Script Generator was designed for people who want to create particle effects and FULL PERMS SCRIPTS of particles, but do not posses the scripting knowledge needed to do that.
The process of creating a particle effect with the Particle Script Generator is very simple, you always see the active particle system infront of you, changing in -real time- as you are simply pushing buttons to change color, size, speed of particles and many other parameters. After you've reached the effect you desire, simply click the "Generate!" button, and the Particle Script Generator will give u a fully functional script in chat, you just have to copy/paste it in to a script file!

Quick Start
If you're not patient enough to read the whole full instructions this chapter is for you, itchy fingers!
As you will rez the Particle Script Generator please be patient and wait for the whole thing to load. When the Particle Script Generator has fully loaded you'll see a red/yellow particle system infront of you(this is your "display") and lots of arrow buttons, and some buttons with words. To make things simpler the buttons are divided in to groups, so it is easier to find a specific option you're looking for, each section marked with label at the top (Particle Propertiess, Quantity, Controls etc).
An important thing you should know about, is the tuning roughness. At the bottom center part of the Particle Script Generator control panel there is a section called Controls, there are three buttons there, Fine - makes the tuning very gentle, medium - duh medium tuning, and coarse - will jump a lot on each click on the arrow, the active tuning roughness will be marked green.
Most of the particle system's parameters are controlled with the arrow buttons, in general arrow up means more, arrow down means less, the tuning buttons control how big is the change when an arrow button is clicked.
On the upper left side - Particle Properties - all there is to do with particles looks - color, alpha (transperancy) and size. Start section says how particles start, and end means what they turn in to at the end, so they can start black and small, and end white and big. There is no Start Alpha buttons, that because it's not functional in LSL.
Particle Motion (upper right) deals with speed, where particles are pushed, how they are rotated and whats the emitting radius.
Quantity - rate means how often particles are emitted (push reset to set to highest rate), burst means how much particles are emitted per burst (which happens every rate times), life means how long will the particle live after it's emitted.
To generate the script simply push 'Generate!', the Particle Script Generator will say the script in chat, you have to copy/paste that script in to a script file, save it and there ya go, a full perms particles script :D
