This command uses the particle's age value as a trigger for an effect.

Plug its Result output into a Trigger port on a State compound or in a Condition port of an If node.

For more information on states, see ICE Particle States [ICE Particle Simulations]; for information on particle age, see ICE Particle Age [ICE Particle Simulations].
