float	m_fPriority = 0.0f
	Used for sorting processors, to ensure a certain order. Lower priority == executed first.

Protected Member Functions
virtual bool	IsContinuous () const override
virtual void	InitializeElements (plUInt64 uiStartIndex, plUInt64 uiNumElements) override
	This method needs to be implemented in order to initialize new elements to specific values.
virtual void	OnFinalize () override
	Called after everything is set up.
virtual plParticleEmitterState	IsFinished () override
	Called before ComputeSpawnCount(). Should return true, if the emitter will never spawn any more particles.
virtual plUInt32	ComputeSpawnCount (const plTime &tDiff) override
	Called once per update. Must return how many new particles are to be spawned.
Protected Member Functions inherited from plParticleEmitter
virtual void	Process (plUInt64 uiNumElements) final override
	The actual method which processes the data, will be called with the number of elements to process.
virtual void	ProcessEventQueue (plParticleEventQueue queue)
Protected Member Functions inherited from plParticleModule
virtual void	OnReset ()
	Called by Reset()
void	CreateStream (const char *szName, plProcessingStream::DataType Type, plProcessingStream **ppStream, bool bWillInitializeStream)
virtual plResult	UpdateStreamBindings () final override
	Internal method which needs to be implemented, gets the concrete stream bindings. This is called every time the streams are resized. Implementations should check that their required streams exist and are of the correct data types.

float	m_fCurSpawnPerSec
float	m_fCurSpawnCounter
Protected Attributes inherited from plProcessingStreamProcessor
plProcessingStreamGroup *	m_pStreamGroup = nullptr
	Back pointer to the stream group - will be set to the owner stream group when adding the stream processor to the group. Can be used to get stream pointers in UpdateStreamBindings();.
