ParticleContainer is a specialized container for rendering hundreds to tens of thousands of lightweight sprites in a single draw call. Use it for particle effects, bullet patterns, or any case where you need a large number of similar-looking objects with minimal per-object overhead. Particles share a single base texture and have a restricted transform set; they are not full Container children.
Assumes familiarity with pixijs-scene-core-concepts. ParticleContainer is a special leaf in a different sense: it contains Particle instances in its own particleChildren array and rejects normal PixiJS children. Use addParticle, not addChild, and wrap the whole ParticleContainer in a Container if you need to group it with other scene objects.
The Particle API is new in v8 but is stable for production use.
