If my memory serves me right the lifetime + particle spawn amount are somewhat linked to each other. The less particles the particle effect spawns the higher lifetime it can have (please correct me if I'm wrong). But I think I never went over 225 lifetime with any of the effects due the fact that they became unstable.

Maybe it could be a nice idea to make thread where people can share their particle setups for specific effects (with sceenshots etc). I have like tons of those already which probably could be helpful to many that do not want to experiment and try to recreate the effects by themselves. I just would need some time to put up a list

So that particle effect as of a underwater room is possible without using FLEP or the trick of overlapping underwater rooms in dry rooms?

Great! This is the best idea teme9

Yeah but those scripts would have to be created. It could be though, with TRNG plugins probably.

I vote for a particle list thread! I have some presets for waterfalls too, but, like 2 or 3. Or even less. But they're perfect obviously.

Exactly.
Although seeing how there is no way to make a new button for this in the editor to flag the rooms, this would probably require typing the room numbers manually to enable the effect.

The same with the flame emitter mod. I mean it sounds like the simplest one to do with TRNG. It's just a value that's modified right? And it's just a single value?

Oh my goodness! Thank you sooo much for sharing this!

I'll give it a try asap!!!
