echoCollision (ec) bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif
 

If on, will cause particle systems to echo to the Script Editor the command that they are running for each particle collision event. If off, only the output of the command will be echoed.Flag can appear in Create mode of commandFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

runupFrom (rf) int ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif
 
If on, run up from previous time; if 2, run up from start time
runupToCurrentTime (rt) bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif
 
If on, run up the scene to current time
saveOnQuit (sq) bool ../../../_images/create.gif ../../../_images/query.gif
 
If on, save the current values of preferences to userPrefs file.
