Despite the given example particle files and wiki documentation, it appears "facing_camera_mode" is being fully ignored, if you set it to "direction", it does not behave as documented, you cannot set a particle in a specific direction, its always camera facing, how "lookat_xyz", the default, functions.
Also note the wiki says it should be called "face_camera_mode", I made sure to try both but neither worked.
Expected behavior:
Setting "facing_camera_mode" to "direction" makes the particle point in a specific direction provided by
"direction": [1, 0, 0]
Actual behavior:
Particle always faces the camera, as if set to "lookat_xyz"
Examples:
Here are 2 example json files that demonstrate the issue. The first one is an adapted example provided by a developer in the discord, but his example was for 1.8.0-beta1, no longer working as intended in 1.10.0
Example 1:
{
"format_version": "1.10.0",
"particle_effect": {
