function void llMakeExplosion( integer particles, float scale, float vel, float lifetime, float arc, string texture, vector offset );

Beginning in 1.14, the simulator will be using llParticleSystem to emulate legacy llMakeExplosion particles.

// Known discrepencies:
// 1) The original llMakeExplosion has random particle lifetime, which cannot be
// created in the current particle system via a single call
// 2) The original llMakeExplosion has continual particle growth throughout its
// lifetime, ending well past the 4m limit of the current system, on long lived
// particles
// 3) the 'arc' defined in the original particle system seems to orient along the
// X axis, the angles of the current particle system orient along the Z axis
// 4) several values are not taken 'verbatim' in the original particle system
// (velocity is not m/sec for instance, and number of particles seems to be
// wildly off), these are approximated loosely in this simulation via basic
// divisors, which may not work out the same in some scenarios
// 5) There is no way to duplicate the offset from the old functions within the
// new particle system
