//User-defined preferences for HTC Vive GPU Particles

//INSTRUCTIONS:
//Make a copy of this file before you change anything so you can go back to it later!
//Touch nothing but the numbers to the right of the ':' sign
//Each variable has a comment above it explaining what it does, and what the allowed range is
//Enjoy, and be kind to one another :)

//SUGGESTIONS:
//Playing with dampening has a dramatic effect on the 'feel' of the system. Lower values are much more chaotic.
//Setting dispersion distance to zero makes things pretty crazy.
//Making min charge and max charge different will make the system more cloud like.

//PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS
//Three things cost performance: cube count, anti aliasing and min/max size.
//Large cubes cost a lot to render - keep your cubes small if you want lots of them
//On my GTX970, I can render around 300,000 tiny cubes with no AA.

//--------------------------------------------------------//

//Cube Count: how many cubes there are. 
//Allowed range: 1 to 1000000 (one million)
cubeCount: 100000

//Render Style: How to render the points
//Note: points are about half as demanding as lines. Lines are about 25% as demanding as cubes
//Allowed values: points | lines | cubes
renderStyle: cubes
//Default - renderStyle: lines

//Anti Aliasing: How smooth hard edges are (specifically this is Unity's MXAA)
//WARNING: This will also kill performance.
//Allowed values: 1, 2, 4 or 8
antiAliasing: 1
//Default - antiAliasing: 2

//Controller Force: how much force the vive controllers push out / pull in.
//Allowed range: 0 to 200
controllerForce: 50

//Dispersion Distance: when cubes are less than this distance (in meters) from a controller, that controller's force will be multiplied by Dispersion Factor
//Allowed range: 0 to 1
dispersionDistance: 0.005

//Dispersion Factor: when cubes are less than dispersionDistance (in meters) from a controller, that controller's force will be multiplied by Dispersion Factor
//Allowed range: -1 to 1
dispersionFactor: 0

//Dampening: How much of a cube's velocity is lost over time. Lower is more chaotic.
//Allowed range: 0 to 0.01
dampening: 0.004

//Max Velocity: Cubes moving faster than this will have their velocity limited to this value (meters per second)
//Allowed range: 0 to 10
maxVelocity: 5

//Min Charge: Cubes are spawned with charge values between MinCharge and MaxCharge. Higher charge means it's more effected by the controller forces!
//Allowed range: 0 to 10
minCharge: 1

//Max Charge: Cubes are spawned with charge values between MinCharge and MaxCharge. Higher charge means it's more effected by the controller forces!
//Allowed range: 0 to 10
maxCharge: 1

//Shadow Strength: How dark the shadows on each cube are. At 1, the shadows on each cube is black. At 0, shadows are turned off
//Allowed range: 0 to 1
shadowStrength: 0.5

//Min Brightness: When cubes are unlit by the controllers, this is how dark they are. A value of 0 is invisible, a value of 1 is 'always fully bright'
//Allowed range: 0 to 1
minBrightness: 0.7

//Light Radius: How far away (in meters) cubes have to be from the controllers to be unlit by them.
//Allowed range: 0.1 to 5
lightRadius: 2

//Min Size: The smallest size cubes can be (in meters) - they are this size when they are closest to either controller or the HMD position
//Allowed range: 0 to 0.1
minSize: 0.001

//Max Size: The largest size cubes can be (in meters) - they are this size when they are maxSizeDistance meters away from either controller or the HMD position
//Allowed range: 0 to 0.1
maxSize: 0.102
//Default - maxSize: 0.002

//Max Size Distance: How far a cube has to be away from either controller or the HMD for it to be MaxSize
//Allowed range: 0.1 to 5
maxSizeDistance: 3
//Default - maxSizeDistance: 1
