Remarks

This value determines the maximum number of particles which can be alive at a single moment. This value is equal to the length of the particle parameter arrays. If the maximum allowed number of particles is reached, no new particles can be created. Old particles have to be removed before new particles can be added. (Particles can be killed by setting their "NormalizedAge" to 1 or greater. When killing particles the oldest particles need to be killed first.)
