Detailed Description

A structure repsenting a group of particles. For efficient, particles are stored in batches rather than individually. All live particles are stored at the head of batch with no gaps of dead particles. A counter is used to record the number of live particles in the batch. Once a batch has 0 live particles, it will removed from the emitter's active particle list to the inactive list. The first particle of the batch is given by an offset from the start of the particle batch.
