Reflects locations or vectors in another location or vector.
Let's show this with some examples. First a simple reflection in the origin:

Let's show some examples. First a simple reflection in the origin:
```
set {_line::*} to vector line from vector 0, 0, 0 to vector 1, 0, 0 and density 5
set {_reflected::*} to vectors {_line::*} reflected at vector 0, 0, 0

And the resulting image (green particles = before, flame particles = after):

We see that the line was mirrored along the z-axis. This is because the z-value of the direction vector was set to -1. The table in the next section shows how the direction vector will affect your reflection.

We see that the line was mirrored along the z-axis. This is because the z-value of the direction vector was set to -1. The table at the top shows an overview of the effect of the direction vector on the reflection.
