Trails for particle system
I know the everything nodes is going on but it is something blender is lacking in terms of features of particle system. For example, it would be better to do something similar to x-particles. Blender has lots of control over particle system so it would be nice to have something like that to extend the functionality of existing particle system.

This is already possible in the functions branch/particle nodes of blender which is supposed to be merged to blender 2.90. Video from developer showing particle trails: youtube.com/watch
You can download the branch to test it yourself here: builder.blender.org/download/branches/
* @rc12 * Thank you for the link. I searched for it but didn't find anything. With some work it could be a cool feature.
* @rc12 * Problem with this technique is that it will generate multiple particles - but i would rather want ot see particle trails with nurbs/paths/gpencil line - fade off / trail lenght (start and end offset) and accumulation features that would be great.
