Speed Multiplier: control the Animation speed
Proximity-

Object: Select the object that you want to scatter around.
Distance Multiplyer: Controls where the density, scale or rotation starts to change.
Look at- Adjusts the orientation so that every scattered object orients towards a third object.
Axis: The axis around which to rotate
Camera Culling- Masks out scatter objects that are outside the camera view.
Camera: Select the camera you want to use.
Focal Length: Set the focal length that your camera is using for a correct result.
Sensor Size: Set the sensor size that your camera is using for a correct result.
Render Width: Related to camera aspect ratio
Render Height: Related to camera aspect ratio
Buffer: Extends the edge of the area that is masked out by the Camera Culling Effect Layer.
I will work to improve and organize this documentation further in the future.
