Particle groups are stored in the "groups" list of the blueprint. So simply do:

Code:

attachment.particleGroup = blueprint.groups[index];

(If you don't already have a reference to the actor's blueprint, you can get it like this):

Code:

var blueprint = attachment.actor.blueprint;

That's it.

You can see an example in ObiParticleAttachmentEditor.cs, which is the script for the particle group inspector.
There you'll see we use a GenericMenu to show a dropdown menu listing all the particle groups in the blueprint (by name). When the user picks one, the OnParticleGroupSelected() method is called (passing the group as a parameter). This method then assigns the particle group to the attachment's particleGroup property.

A particle group contains a List<int> of particle indices in the actor:

Code:

group.particleIndices
