Quick answer

Where it goes
Is Particles Plus required on the client, server, or both?
It must be installed on the client. Do not install it on the dedicated server.
This Vintage Story file is marked client-only.
What else does Particles Plus 2.7.0 need?
2.7.0. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
This file does not list any required mods. Do not add a library just because a different file uses it.
We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

Adding custom particles:
If you want to add custom particles you can do it in the mod's config. You should be familiar with:
- JSON formating
- Wildcards and Regex
- AdvancedParticleProperties Class properties from VintageStory API.
Just follow default config format. I highly recommend to use Modding Tools by Maltiez for creating / exporting particles code.
edit: Modding Tools are very outdated
Planned:
- Particles editor
Q and A:
Q: Mod doesn't work on the server but works on SP
A: Some servers only allow whitelisted mods, others have a blacklist for certain mods. This mod is probably not allowed on that server.
Q: Can the render distance of the particles be changed?
A: No, it uses vanilla particle system and it renders exactly the same way as any particle in the game.
Q: "P" / "CTRL + P" does something else
A: Go to Settings > Controls and rebind Particles Plus hotkeys to something else.
