Post Wounds
So, I was looking at wounds, and I realised that there is BurstDamage and EmissionDamage.

Which is the difference between those?

Afaics BurstDamage comes into effect when the wound emits it's first burst of particles, and on every other burst (defined in BurstSpacing or something). EmissionDamage, I would assume, comes into effect every time a particle is emitted.

Lets say I have
BurstDamage = 2.5
EmissionDamage = 0.025
ParticlesPerMinute = 300
EmissionCountLimit = 200
BurstSize = 10
BurstScale = 4

Upon having this wound inflicted, an actor will instantly lose 2.5 health (BurstDamage) and splash (burst) out 10 blood drops (BurstSize) at 4 times the regular emission velocity. (BurstScale)
For the bleeding afterward:
5 Emissions (blood drops) per second (300 [ParticlesPerMinute] / 60 [seconds per minute])
40 Seconds of bleeding (200 [EmissionCountLimit] / 5 [emissions per second])
5 Total bleeding damage (0.025 [EmissionDamage] * 200 [EmissionCountLimit])
0.125 Bleeding damage per second (5 [emissions per second]* 0.025 [EmissionDamage])

I'm pretty sure burst damage is the initial damage you receive, while emission damage is more like bleeding and stuff.

This is the best explanation I could have gotten. Thanks!
