solved Change particle System emitRate live

[Myjestic]

Hi,

I did not find anything about that topic. How can I change the emit rate of a particle system after it started?

Hey!

system. emitRate  = xxx should make it

Please provide a repro case on the playground if this does not work

Hey Deltakosh,

it is a bit complicated to show my project, because there are to many dependencies.

I am calling

    scene.registerBeforeRender(function () {
       particleSystem.emitRate += 1;
       console.log(particleSystem.emitRate);
    });

inside my CreateScene function. If I try it in playground, everything works fine. The emit rate of my particle system is increasing and I can see this in my rendered scene.

But if I do the same in my project, I can see the emitRate rising in console. But I see no effect in my rendered scene.

I know this is kind like clairvoyance for you. But do you have an assumption for this behavior?

Let me check my crystal ball

I cannot help you more without your code but here are some random ideas:

- Are you sure you are not setting the emitRate somewhere else?

- Do you reload your particles from a file?

Argh. I was searching for days for this problem.

Now I found it. My particle emitter was a clone of a mesh and that was the reason why nothing happend if I changed the emit rate. Know the emitter is a single mesh and everything works like a charm.
