[ScriptingAPI] ParticleSystem.Particle.size and ParticleSystem.Particle.color are equal startColor and startSize of ParticleSyst

Shuriken

-

ParticleSystem.Particle.size and ParticleSystem.Particle.color are equal startColor and startSize of ParticleSystem. And should update over lifetime of Particle.
Steps to reproduce:
1 Open ParticleSystem_ParticleSystem.Particle scene
2 Choose "Scale 1x" in Hierarchy and go to Inspector (notice that color over lifetime and size over lifetime are checked) and check "Log sizes" in TEST_ParticleSystemParticle section
3 Press "Play"
4 In console you should see:

RGBA(255, 255, 255, 255)
UnityEngine.Debug:Log(Object)
1
UnityEngine.Debug:Log(Object)

which are the same over lifetime of the particles (and equal to startColor and startSize of ParticleSystem).

    For anyone who may try to fix it, you can get it to occur also like this:

    int smokeCount = smoke.GetParticles(smokeParticles);
    for (int i = 0; i < smoke.maxParticles; i++)
    {
    myVector = smokeParticles[i].position; //works!
    myVector2 = smokeParticles[i].size; //doesn't work
    }
