Rotation can improve many particle effects. We are forced to pick and choose the values we want to use for the particle system in our project because, frankly, I could write an entire book on particle systems. Instead of having rotation value ranges, like we did earlier for the particle's scale, we are going to have a single flag that allows the user to choose whether the particle system is going to align its rotation with the emission velocity vector. I find this to be a pleasant effect. The user will make this decision with anĀ id="align_rotation" checkbox.
Here is what the HTML code looks like:
<label class="ccontainer"><span class="label">align rotation:</span>
<input type="checkbox" id="align_rotation" checked="checked">
<span class="checkmark"></span>
</label>
