Summary: Particles played via an animation ignore this value, whereas when the same particle is played via a command it will expire on contact.

Impact: 

Affecting in development content. This breaks our content as it leads to visual confusion for the end user and is not fixable for us. 

 

Repro Steps:

• Download attached world in the compass ticket #4951
• Open the world
• Observe particles passing through blocks 
• If the entity is not playing the particle type /event entity @e[type=noxcrew:heat_exhaust] noxcrew:add_on

• Observe the particle coming from the commandblocks stopping when it hits the blocks 

Observed Results:

 Particles played via an animation using a locator do not expire on contacting blocks. When the particle is played via a command, in chat or commandblock, the particle does expire correctly. It appears that particles from the animation do not follow the expire_on_contact as expected. 

 

Expected Results:

Particles function the same way regardless of being played via a command or an animation
