System Information

OS: Arch Linux (Kernel 4.7)
GPU: Nvidia GTX 980 (370.28)

Blender Version
Broken: 2.78 (0b13b7a)
Worked: None (that I know of)

Short description of error

When adding a texture to a particle system through Python, the influence settings don't work at all. Time seems to be the only one that affects the particles.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

particles_python_bugtest.blend

Open the included Blend file
Run the script
Go the texture tab and the "test_tex" texture
Try the different influence options and their sliders (size, gravity, etc)

For the expected behaviour add a new texture in another slot and check the influence settings.

Thanks for the report, but current particle system is reaching it's end-of-life and we only fixing regression in the current design. Surely there are lots of possible fixes and improvements possible in this area, but the existing design is very fragile and will be fully redesigned for 2.8 project.
