The Bug
The Particles video setting does not affect the particles emitted from the gust_emitter particle effect. There are two variants of this, described below:
ID | Description |
|---|---|
| When a breeze's wind charge hits a block or entity. |
| When a wind charge item hits a block or entity. |
This can cause frame rate drops when multiple wind charges burst on lower-end systems where particles are already set to a lower value. Wind charges (especially ones shot by breezes) can also create particles that can visually clutter the player's screen, which some players may struggle with.
Steps to Reproduce
Ensure the
Particlessetting is set toAll.Run the command below:
/particle minecraft:gust_emitter_large ~5 ~2 ~Set the
Particlessetting toDecreasedorMinimal.Run the same command as before.
Observed Results
The amount of particles appears to be the same in both settings.
Expected Results
The amount of particles displayed would change depending on the setting.
