      The Bug

      The Particles video setting does not affect the particles emitted from the gust_emitter particle effect. There are two variants of this, described below:

      ID Description
      gust_emitter_large When a breeze's wind charge hits a block or entity.
      gust_emitter_small When a wind charge item hits a block or entity.

      This can cause frame rate drops when multiple wind charges burst on lower-end systems where particles are already set to a lower value. Wind charges (especially ones shot by breezes) can also create particles that can visually clutter the player's screen, which some players may struggle with.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Ensure the Particles setting is set to All.
      2. Run the command below:
        /particle minecraft:gust_emitter_large ~5 ~2 ~
      3. Set the Particles setting to Decreased or Minimal.
      4. Run the same command as before.

      Observed Results

      The amount of particles appears to be the same in both settings.

      Expected Results

      The amount of particles displayed would change depending on the setting.
