A facing mode that lines each particle up with its direction of travel and turns it about that axis to face the camera. The axis is the particle's last non-zero displacement. A quad runs along the direction of travel, and a mesh points its local -X along it.

Only VfxModularPhysicsComponent records that direction, and only when IsDirectionVelocityOriented or IsDirectionVelocityOrientedOnSpawn is set. Without a recorded direction, the mode leaves the particle's transform unchanged.

The particle's own rotation is applied inside that frame.
