# Increment Strip Index On Start

The **Increment Strip Index On Start** Block helps to manage the initialization of Particle Strips. A Particle Strip comprises of linked groups of particles and the number of these groups is defined by the strip's stripIndex attribute. This Block increments the Particle Strip's stripIndex attribute (unsigned integer) each time the start event of the Spawn Context triggers. This adds a new linked group of particles to the Particle Strip.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The stripIndex attribute returns to zero when a stop event triggers or if stripIndex reaches the **Strip Max Count**. This goes back to the first strip group index.
