**Particle:** Assign a Particle System you wish to control from here.

**Play Mode:** how long the particle is played when the mechanism is triggered. Loop or Only Once.

**Cooldown:** how long (in seconds) before the trap can be triggered again.

**Effects:** you can add or remove [*Audio handlers*](https://app.gitbook.com/@runemarkstudio/s/deadly-dungeons/~/drafts/-MVv5Wz9S1GutR_VLVPo/traps/effect-handlers/audio-handler) or [*Particle effect handlers* ](https://app.gitbook.com/@runemarkstudio/s/deadly-dungeons/~/drafts/-MVv5Wz9S1GutR_VLVPo/traps/effect-handlers/particle-handler)here and control their behavior on specific events such as Loop start, Loop end, Activate or Deactivate. \
Commands include Play Once, Play, Stop and Pause.
