[fixed]Particles being drawn at an angle 0.9.25

I don't know it this existed in previous versions or not, but particles seem to be being drawn differently than before. May be intentional of course.

Anyway, it seems that if you are at 45 degrees to the thing producing the particles, you see the particles at 45 degrees too - which, not being particularly detailed objects, makes them very thin. Consider the following 2 screenshots.

One is of my own blood as I get blasted from either side from 2 chaingun equipped robots, the other is me hitting a DECORATE (hence the green blood) Korax from an angle. As you strafe circle round something like the Korax, you can see the blood particles alternating between being flat squares at the 90 degree angles and thin ones at the 45 degree angles.

I know you don't like blood particles anyway, but this doesn't look right IMO.

Yes, I already noticed this myself. I forgot to add some changes when I inverted the coordinate system.

Well, if that's the worst bug that creeps in from what sounds like a pretty fundamental change, things aren't too bad. Looks very odd though.
