Classpublic class SpeedLimit
InheritanceSpeedLimit Inheritance ActionBase

The SpeedLimit action limits the particle's maximum speed to the specified speed. The behaviour can be switched to instead limit the minimum speed to the specified speed.

This action has aa priority of -5, so that it executes after all accelerations have occured.

Constructor detail
SpeedLimit()constructor
public function SpeedLimit(speed:Number, isMinimum:Boolean = false)

The constructor creates a SpeedLimit action for use by an emitter. To add a SpeedLimit to all particles created by an emitter, use the emitter's addAction method.

Parameters
speed:Number — The speed limit for the action in pixels per second.
 
isMinimum:Boolean (default = false) — If true, particles travelling slower than the speed limit are accelerated to the speed limit, otherwise particles travelling faster than the speed limit are decelerated to the speed limit.

Method detail
update()method
public override function update(emitter:Emitter, particle:Particle, time:Number):void

This method does nothing. All derived classes override this method to update each particle every frame.

Parameters
emitter:Emitter — The Emitter that created the particle.
 
particle:Particle — The particle to be updated.
 
time:Number — The duration of the frame - used for time based updates.
