@Hamed Another strange particle bug!: http://bit.ly/2saV7uu
An object is playing an infinite timed particle and is constantly moving in some direction, after some event the particle is turned off. What should happen is the particle stops playing and any remaining particle will dissapear on its own as intended by the particle effect, but if the object is moving in a direction other than an angle of 0° the particles will all dissapear abruptly. This makes the new stuff I'm adding to Meteor look stupid. (It took me a while to figure exactly what was making it happen). -
@Hamed Also here's a link to a laggy version of the exact same project linked above: http://bit.ly/2sKHcZm
You should be able to very easily notice that this version is super laggy (link in the above post runs at 60FPS, the one in this post runs at less than 15FPS). Literally all I did was open particle editor, select the particle, press save and yes to overwrite, and repeat about 5 times (you need to keep reselecting the particle for it to work). If you do it too many times the particle seems to become corrupt and doesn't play at all any more, when you edit it to see the graphic it has changed from whatever it was to the graphic used by the fire particle. -
The links probably expired again, I hope you got them.

@Aidan-Oxley link not expired yet, weird bug with particles stopping. Also happening on beta.
-
@Jack8680 Nice! So is the second project link super laggy though compared to first?
-
Fixed the particles getting progressively worse... but I can't recreate the abruptly stopping particle

Here's a link to an example, first touch the red object playing the particle (touch to turn particles on or off), you will notice everything works fine. Then touch the label that says "0" and enter an angle (will rotate the red square to that angle, now try turning the particle on and off by tapping the red square, it should appear different and turn off abruptly. -
Fixed with this particular use case...
However, if you turn on rotate with parent, it will still disappear abruptly given the way particles are designed.
-
@Hamed So you can't fix it with rotate with parent? This is really weird, because I can get around it by instead of turning off the particles, have a separate object that only plays the particle then deletes itself when I want to turn them off, particle doesn't disappear abruptly.
-
The way you use it in the project you sent is working correctly now. And yes, thats a good work around for rotate with parent.
