Adding particle emitters on the fly?
by Simon Meistininkas · in Torque Game Engine · 07/09/2002 (5:53 pm) · 3 replies
Is it possible to add a particle emitter in script so for example if a gun "misfires" I could add a new particle emitter w/ like a new ParticlEmitter(){ etc. };
?
I've tried many ways, but ran into problems, such as particleEmitter not be a console dynamic class.
Has anyone had success with this? Or adding particle emitters to missions?
Thanks

To add a particle emitter to a mission simply use a ParticleEmitterNode, you can add that one from the mission editor, and to use a particle emitter for the misfire you said you can call new emitters from script.like mEmitter = new ParticleEmitter() blah blah

Where in the world builder can I find what I need to use for attachign particle emitters to objects in the world?

If you want something that happens over a long period of time, like a gun smoking, you really should just put the emmitter on there in the first place.
