SnAssets Particles - How to reference assets from another mod
====================================================

Mod id / namespace:

    snassets_particles

SnAssets Particles is an asset library. Your mod should depend on it, then reference its assets by namespace.
Do not copy the actual PNG files into your own mod.

Referencing particle textures
--------------------------------

Particle textures are located within:

    assets/snassets_particles/textures/particle/

When referencing a particle texture from your own particle JSON, use:

    snassets_particles:

Example SnAssets file:

   assets/snassets_particles/textures/particle/bang0.png

Reference it from your mod's particle JSON like this:

    assets/examplemod/particles/example_bang.json

    {
      "textures": [
        "snassets_particles:bang0"
      ]
    }

Example with multiple frames:

    {
      "textures": [
        "snassets_particles:bang0",
        "snassets_particles:bang1",
        "snassets_particles:bang2",
        "snassets_particles:bang3"
      ]
    }

If the texture is in a subfolder, keep the subfolder path.

Example SnAssets file:

    assets/snassets_particles/textures/particle/bulletholes/bullethole_basic.png 

Reference:

    snassets_particles:bulletholes/bullethole_basic 

Important:

   SnAssets Particles only provides the texture files.
    Your own mod still needs to register or define the particle type if your loader/version requires that. 

2. Dependency code
----------------------

Fabric fabric.mod.json:

    {
      "depends": {
        "snassets_particles": "*"
      }
    }

Forge / NeoForge mods.toml:

    [[dependencies.examplemod]]
        modId="snassets_particles"
        mandatory=true
        versionRange="[1.0.0,)"
        ordering="NONE"
        side="BOTH"

Replace "examplemod" with your own mod id.

3. Usage rule
-------------

Allowed:

->  Make SnAssets Particles a dependency and reference its textures through JSON or code.

Not allowed:

    Taking PNG or other asset files out of SnAssets Particles and pasting, bundling, or redistributing them inside your own mod.
