    Try as I might I can't find any way in the documentation or from random experimentation to change the Min and Max Normal Velocity of a MPE through a script. Using an Ellipsoid Particle Emitter and changing Tangent Velocity isn't an option either, as the documentation doesn't seem to even acknowledge the existence of Tangent Velocity. Help!

    *A burst of particles has pushed this topic up!*

    Would a better solution just be to make two particle systems and enable/disable through the code?

    There isn't always a complete feature parity between what's exposed in the inspector and what's available scripting wise. Normal velocity wasn't implemented so your idea of two emitters is fine, and you may also submit a bug report requesting this feature.

    Cheers,

    Alright, I'll just do the two emitters. Thanks!
