Enhance the car with backfire - rally cars mostly.

Introduction

Racer's cars can display backfire particles when rpm rises & drops.

Adding backfire to the car.ini file

Here is an extract you can add to the car.ini file:

particles
{
  backfire
  {
    exhaust0
    {
      pos=-0.28 0.09 -2.07
      normal=0 0 -1
    }
    exhaust1
    {
     pos=0.28 0.19 -2.17
     normal=0 0 -1
    }
    type=backfire
    min_rpm=5000
    ; suppose car comes from 9000 rpm for example. Then backfiring can happen when max_rpm is reached
    max_rpm=7500
    ; high backfire likeliness for rally cars
    likeliness_percentage=30
  }
} 

The 'backfire' tree contains the particle systems that generates the backfire particles. You can define multiple exhaust positions (exhaust0 and up).
