added a straight rain option

[ajohnson1031]

Let me know if this is okay with you.

@ajohnson1031 Thanks for your contribution and interest in this project.

I'd like to support the straight-down animations that you requested. Adding an additional, near-identical version of the component makes it difficult to maintain. Fixes in one module would need to be carried over to the other.

Would you investigate the spring and swingArc methods when the velocity is 0?

react-native-make-it-rain/src/makeItRain.js

Line 85 in 0ec6502

const spring = (dt, position, velocity, anchor, tension = 50, mass = 1 ) => {

It could be a matter of short-circuiting the return in the spring if the velocity is 0. The swingArc method may need the velocity parameter to do the same.

I'll definitely look into it. Having a bit of trouble getting the example off the ground, so can't test locally just yet.

If you have an app already set up, you could edit the source files under node_modules/react-native-make-it-rain. You'll then need to copy those over to your fork in order to submit them in a PR.

[ajohnson1031]

True. I'll try that in a bit. I'd like to try tackling the excessive promises issue as well, since it's breaking my app. Could you point me in the right direction?

The recommendation by the reanimated team is to migrate to reanimated v2. However, another thread says that v2 has poor performance.

Someone made an unmounting patch but I'm not sure whether it made it into the library.
