Particle Editor - Remove Particle from Emitter

by Brett Williams · in Torque 3D Professional · 08/11/2009 (5:21 pm) · 2 replies

From what I can tell, when you have an emitter selected, and you set a value for one of the particles using the menu, there is no way to unset it. The only way I've found is to click to a different emitter, and choose no I don't want to save, and then go back.

Is there a way to remove a particle from an emitter? If not I believe there should be a X icon or something next to those menus to clear it and remove the particle from the emitter.

Thoughts?

So right now there is technically no way to remove a particle from the emitter without deleting it entirely.

Right now I'm currently writing up more workflow to solve this problem with the Particle Editor. The short term solution would be to unset the particle via the console.

Example :
emitter.particles = "foo" TAB "bar" TAB "dom";

if you want to remove "bar", enter this in the console...

emitter.particles = "foo" TAB "dom";
