ParticleEmitter explodes on creation, when both advance > 0 and emitting: false are present

Description

ParticleEmitter explodes on creation when using (example values):

advance: 5000,
emitting: false,

Expected behavior: nothing emits, until emitting is set to true.

Current workaround is to 1) not set advance in config, 2) set emitting to true and call 3) myParticleSystem.fastForward(5000); but that defeats the purpose of having both props settable using config.

I would consider this expected. 🙂 And the alternative seems super complicated.

You've advanced the time of the emitter via advance, thereby implicitly making it start emitting. Both properties are valid in the config, but they serve different purposes, really.
