Description

This is a regression introduced by the particle system manager. It does not account for the owning actor's time dilation when ticking the particle system components. 

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Create a new particle system
  2. Create a new actor
  3. Add a particle system component to the actor
  4. Set the particle system component's template to the system from #1
  5. In the actor's construction script set its custom Time Dilation to .1
  6. Place the actor in a level

RESULT

The particle system will simulate as if the time dilation were 1.0.

NOTE: If you disable the particle system manager with the command  "fx.PSCMan.Enable 0" it will simulate at the owning actor's time dilation.
