As In snowfall example particles are created randomly emitter.addInitializer( new Position( new LineZone( new Point( -5, -5 ), new Point( 505, -5 ) ) ) ... As In snowfall example particles are created randomly
emitter.addInitializer( new Position( new LineZone( new Point( -5, -5 ), new Point( 505, -5 ) ) ) );

But how to control these particles so that they generate at specific distance from each other in a a proper fashion.

Flint doesn't include a specific grid position initializer, but it's very simple to do. A custom initializer to set ...
