How to make particles not obey physics

[ctmartinez1992]

Hi, i have this code that i straight up copied from the the phaser examples:

        //Rain        this.emitter = game.add.emitter(400, 0, 400);        this.emitter.width = this.game.width;        this.emitter.makeParticles('rain');        this.emitter.minParticleScale = 0.1;        this.emitter.maxParticleScale = 0.5;        this.emitter.setYSpeed(300, 500);        this.emitter.setXSpeed(-5, 5);        this.emitter.minRotation = 0;        this.emitter.maxRotation = 0;        this.emitter.start(false, 1600, 5, 0);                //Arcade physics        this.game.physics.arcade.gravity.y = GRAVITY;

Basically, it's just simulating rain. However, it seems that the arcade gravity is also applied to the emitter because if i comment the gravity line, the rain works fine. I can't seem to find a way to apply a custom gravity to rain.

Is there any solution?

 

Thanks in advance.

The Emitter object also has a gravity property which will set the gravity on each particle. I believe this will override the global gravity setting.

You would think so, but changing that property does nothing. I tried put it before starting the emitter, after starting the emitter, on the update, nothing works. I can't find anything relevant on the source code and looking at my code. This is the only time i use gravity parameters and as soon as i comment the arcade gravity line, it works just fine.

You don't need to specify a global gravity - you could apply it on a per-sprite basis; so comment out the line and then for any sprites which do need gravity, just apply it to their body.
