Why is emission behaviour different when area width and height equals 1?

Try this:
Create an area (height and width 500) with particles with some velocity. Tick the “Inward” box in the particle tab. Set handle to auto center.
The particles, as expected, move toward the center.
Now change area height and width to 2 each. same behavior.
Now change both to 1. Different behavior. The particles move towards left/top.
Why? Shouldn’t they continue moving towards the center? It’s like the pivot gets shifted to the top left or something.
Same thing happens for ellipse. I’m implementing my own runtime in java and cant figure this out.
Yes that’s a bit of a strange one. If Area width and height is 1 with handle set to autocentre, then the random number for the x/y is -0.5 to 0.5, and then it calculates the direction to 0,0 for the velocity. In theory that should work but I guess there’s something wrong either in the random number generator or maybe the direction calculation. But it is a bug, so I’ll see if I can track it down š
