Hello, I’m not really sure if this is considered a bug or a missing feature…
So I have this particles emitter that’s set to run out of particles after a while and gets deleted.
I also want to be able to stop and resume the emission at anytime while the tank is still not empty.
The problem however is that when I stop the emission and after the particles disappear, the emitter gets deleted, even though the tank is still not empty.
I tried a workaround:
- “capacity of emitter = 0” / “displayed particles = 0” → delete emitter
This also deletes the emitter when it stops and not when tank is empty. The “capacity of emitter” condition or the expression “particles.Tank()” just return the capacity that’s initially set in the properties. There’s no condition or expression that gets the current tank capacity.
I think, logically, the “Delete when out of particles” option should delete the emitter when the tank actually runs out of particles. The action “change capacity” to 0 can be used to force delete the emitter if still not empty. Or at least have it as a second checkbox option.
Thanks!
