Burst particles

Actionessentials.burst

Sprays a burst of particles in all directions from the object's center.

Particles live 0.6 seconds, fall slightly with gravity and fade out. They stay in the world and do not follow the object. A scene holds up to 1200 particles at once; extra ones are skipped.

Field	What it means
`count`number	Number of particles.Default: 24
`color`text	Particle color, as hex like `#72efdd` or a color name like `red`.Default: #72efdd
`speed`number	Launch speed in pixels per second; each particle gets a random 25-100% of it.Default: 120

Example Burst 30 yellow particles when a coin is collected.

Movement trail

Actionessentials.trail

Leaves small fading particles behind the object as it moves.

Use it inside On Update. Every time the object has moved at least 7 pixels since the last puff, it emits 2 small cyan (#72efdd) particles at its bottom center. The color is fixed.
