This property is a list of vectors that define the path particles follow over their lifetime. The default value of this property is an empty list [].

Example

In this example, ThermoSystem is a model resource of the type #particle. This statement specifies that the particles of ThermoSystem will follow the path outlined by the list of vectors.

member("Fires").modelResource("ThermoSystem").emitter.path = [vector(0,0,0), vector(15,0,0), vector(30,30,-10)]
