Attributes

General Attributes

Attribute	Aliases	Description	Default
particle	p	The particle type to use.	reddust
mob	m, t	The entity to spawn as the particle. Cannot be the original entity. Premium Only.
amount	count, a	The number of particles to create	10
spread	offset	The vertical spread of the particles	0
hSpread	hs	The horizontal spread of the particles	0
vSpread	vs, yspread, ys	The spread of the particles on the y axis. Overwrites `spread`	spread
xSpread	xs	The spread of the particles on the x axis. Overwrites `hSpread` on that axis	hSpread
zSpread	zs	The spread of the particles on the z axis. Overwrites `hSpread` on that axis	hSpread
speed	s	The “speed” of the particles. If a particle has a DataType, this attribute will behave inconsistently.	0
yOffset	y	The Y offset of the particles from the target	0
viewDistance	vd	The distance the particles are rendered	128
fromorigin	fo	Should the particles be generated from the origin of the mechanic	false
directional	d	Does the particle use directional travel	false
directionReversed	dr	Reverses the direction of the particles.	false
direction	dir	Specifies a vector for the particles to move towards.	0,0,0 (x,y,z)
fixedyaw	yaw	Sets the yaw of the effect	-1111
fixedpitch	pitch	Sets the pitch of the effect	-1111

Extra Attributes

Depending on the specific particle type used, extra attributes will become available to use inside particle-related mechanics too. you can find more by accessing the specific particle's page from the particle types wiki page

Mob-Type Particles [Premium Only]

This particle type will replace the spawned particle with the selected entity. The entity will act as a normal one, being able to attack, be hit, activate skills and so on. The entity will have no parent/owner relationship with the caster.

Entity-Only Attributes

Attribute	Aliases	Description	Default
useEyeLocation	uel	(true/false) Whether to base the particles on the entity's eyes	false
forwardOffset	startfoffset, sfo	The forward-offset from the targeted entity,doesn'n work when set directional to true	0
sideOffset	soffset, sso	The side-offset from the targeted entity,doesn'n work when set directional to true	0
