Particle System through Script
Hi. I made this script to create an dust effect in my space, but the particles are not being shown.
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
namespace Game.Effects {
public class ParticleSpaceDust : MonoBehaviour {
private Transform _T;
private ParticleSystem _P;
private ParticleSystem.Particle[] points;
[SerializeField]private Rigidbody playerRigidbody;
[SerializeField]private int maxParticles;
[SerializeField]private float dustDistance;
[SerializeField]private float dustSize;
private void Start () {
_T = transform;
_P = GetComponent<ParticleSystem>();
}
private void Update () {
// validation
if (playerRigidbody == null) return;
if (points == null) CreateDust();
// effects
/*
for (int i = 0; i < points.Length; ++i) {
if (Vector3.Distance(_T.position, points[i].position) > dustDistance) {
points[i].position = (Random.insideUnitSphere * dustDistance + _T.position);
} else {
// move the particles to opposite direction of the rigidbody velocity
Vector3 pos = new Vector3(-playerRigidbody.velocity.z, 0f, -playerRigidbody.velocity.x);
points[i].position = pos + points[i].position;
}
}
*/
_P.SetParticles(points, points.Length);
}
private void CreateDust() {
points = new ParticleSystem.Particle[maxParticles];
for (int i = 0; i < maxParticles; ++i) {
points[i].position = (Random.insideUnitSphere * dustDistance) + _T.position;
points[i].startColor = Color.white;
points[i].startSize = dustSize;
}
_P.SetParticles(points, maxParticles);
_P.Play();
}
}
}
The particle system component is attached to same GO as the script. Here is the Particle System properties. Its a brand new particle with Emission, Shape and Looping offline.
When I hit play, nothing happen! Help please!

Well... it's showing now ( idk how ), but it takes a huge time to the particles show up.
