Particle system to delay start
how do I make a particle system to start when another particle system collides with ground or at a certain second from its start ?
If you want particle system to start after certain time period from an event, you can do
int TRIGGER_TIME = 20;
//increase the timer per frame
update()
{
timer++;
if(timer > TRIGGER_TIME && !emitter.emit)
emitter.emit = true
}
// Initialize the timer when the event occurs
onWhateverEvent()
{
timer= 0;
}
if you want emitter to slowly increase emitting the particles,
play around with emitter.maxEnergy
int MAX_ENERGY = 5;
// in update do
if(emitter.maxEnergy < MAXENERGY)
emitter.maxEnergy += 0.01f;
Hope it helps !!
