Can a particle be affected by gravity?
Hi I am very new to Unity but I've been catching on pretty quick. I am trying to get a particle to be affected by gravity. I've been looking around the forums and doc's but no luck. I tried putting a rigidbody component onto the my particle system but it still isn't affected by gravity. It just shoots off in the direction I give it. Am I just missing something simple here or what?

in the particle animator component change the force on the y to be -10. this is like gravity
and works fine :)
Awesome! Thank you. Hah guess thats one value I didn't mess with.
set it to -9.81 so when you look back on it later you will remember you want it to be "gravity"

Unity 5.0: there's a Gravity Modifier input that lets you determine the effect of world gravity on the particles.
