Modifying existing particles with particle properties

Is there any way to modify particles based on the properties of the particles themselves? What I'm trying to do is modify a particles x/y movement dependent on its height. I want the particles to move faster if they're higher in the air, based on player input(walking).

This is my attempt:
PHP Code:
  temp.emitter findimg(200).emitter;
  if (
abs(temp.dx) > 0) {
    
with (temp.emitter) {
      
addglobalmodifier("once"05"x""add", -temp.dx*particles[0].z,-temp.dx*particles[0].z);
    }
  } 
But obviously it doesn't work or I wouldn't be here.

I don't think so. There's no way to read or write the variables of particles; fairly literal fire and forget.

The particles[] array you're accessing is just templates/prototypes/classes which hold the starting variables of the actual particles.

You could maybe be dynamic with the modifiers though by repeatedly doing removemodifiers() and add*modifier() but I'm not sure how well that works or if it could get laggy.
