> This page documents the **PStorm node** of Thinking Particles in **Cinema 4D**, the full-featured TP emitter. Position and alignment are driven via input ports, making the particle source itself completely animatable within the node setup.

This Node creates a particle stream (an **emitter**). The emitter's position and direction is controlled using the Emitter Position and Emitter Alignment input ports. By default, the emitter's position is set at the world origin.
