It's the minimum speed a particle will maintain, in a way.

In other words, when a particle's velocity is slowed down (by AirResistance), it will (try) not (to) go below the AirThreshold value.

When the particle is forced to a velocity below the AirThreshold, it might/should disappear.

Wasn't AirTreshold the minimum speed a particle has to have for AirResistance effect to kick in??

I'm with Asklar, I thought it was the minimum speed before air resistance starts.

Then whats the point of it? The speed wont go down without anything (air resistance) slowing it down...
Or is there something i dont know ?


Edit:
Made some tests and - in fact it is what 4zK said, minimum speed of the projectile, the air resistance will stop affecting projectile after decreasing to X ammount of speed.
