cached

A subtype of particle holder that reuses the same particles to reduce client lag when rendering certain atoms, usually found in large quantities and close together. Since it reuses the same instances, modifying an instance of particles will affect all atoms that show it, therefore procs like set_particle_position() shouldn't be used here.

Vars
max_particle_index	The length of the pool of particles from which the chosen instance will be picked This provides an ever-so-lightly variety to the particles, so they don't all jarringly look EXACTLY the same
particles_by_type	A static list meant to contain the availables instances of a particle path to use.
