Hi there,
I am about to throw my PC out of the window xD. This issue is driving me nuts. So I have screened through this forum and tried every suggestion here. Nothing seemed to have worked for me. However, the trigger “Particle.play” is translated over to the log of Unity meaning that when pressing space it should display that visual.
if (audioSource.isPlaying == false) //no sound overlay
{
audioSource.PlayOneShot(mainEngine);
mainEngineParticles.Play();
print("Particle running");
I see in the log file that the condition is triggered to play the particle effect. However, It won’t show it in game. I have tried every single tweak on the inspection slider too (as suggested here in some of the posts). The only way I get this to work is by pressing “Play on awake”. From there I also tried to “disable” that effect in the code when pressing space. Doesnt work either. So here I am trying to figure out this problem for a good 2 hours and about to move the whole rocket thing into the trash can xD. But yeah will need to experiment around. Someone still having issues with the particles even with all these suggestions here?
There is clearly something interrupting the visual display of
engineParticles.Play();
EDIT:
I also cant make the death particles running on impact. I will submit here the whole code, maybe you can spot something.
