Turbulence
The motion of the particles can be
"loosened up"
by introducing many small waves of turbulence.
You can use the
"Max. Quantity" button to set (in
percentages) how much turbulence is visible at
the one time (currently a maximum of 40 can be
displayed).
However, since the turbulence forms and
disappears at random, you will often see only
some of it at any one time. This depends on the
probability value that is entered for the
"Occurrence" of turbulence. At 100% all of the
set turbulence is active at the once. Lower values
will reduce the number accordingly. At 0% there
is no turbulence at all, and the other slider
controls no longer have an effect.
You can use the
"Intensity" slider control to select
how strong you want the turbulence to be.
If only a small amount of turbulence is active, this
setting will produce an effect that looks more like
horizontal or
"sideways" gusts of wind (the
turbulence generally will only take effect in a
horizontal direction). Only when the whole
screen is filled with particles will you clearly see
the large variety and complexity of the
movements.
