Weird Error on Particles in Level 2

[splunkzilla]

I’m using Unity 2019.2 and I’ve noticed several differences during the course when it comes to prefabs, so I’m hoping this error is related to that. When I run my rocket ship in level one, the particles work fine, but in level 2 they stop working. Here is a quick video:

I made sure to link the particle assets from the hierarchy and not the asset window, and I made sure that the particle prefabs were applied to the Rocket prefab and not a variant (this new prefab workflow was really confusing to learn, btw). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is my code:

public class Rocket : MonoBehaviour
{

    [SerializeField] float rcsThrust = 100f;
    [SerializeField] float mainThrust = 100f;
    [SerializeField] float transcendTime = 1f;
    [SerializeField] float deathTime = 1f;

    [SerializeField] AudioClip mainEngine;
    [SerializeField] AudioClip death;
    [SerializeField] AudioClip success;

    [SerializeField] ParticleSystem mainEngineParticles;
    [SerializeField] ParticleSystem deathParticles;
    [SerializeField] ParticleSystem successParticles;


    Rigidbody rigidBody;
    AudioSource audioSource;
    
    enum State {Alive, Dying, Transcending};
    State state = State.Alive;

    // Start is called before the first frame update
    void Start()
    {
        rigidBody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
        audioSource = GetComponent<AudioSource>();
    }

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        if (state == State.Alive)
        {
            RespondToThrustInput();
            RespondToRotateInput();
        }
    }

    void OnCollisionEnter(Collision collision)
    {
        if (state != State.Alive) { return; }

            switch (collision.gameObject.tag)
        {
            case "Friendly":
                print("Ok");
                break;
            case "Finish":
                StartSuccessSequence();
                break;
            default:
                StartDeathSequence();
                break;
        }
    }

    private void StartDeathSequence()
    {
        audioSource.Stop();
        state = State.Dying;
        audioSource.PlayOneShot(death);
        deathParticles.Play();
        Invoke("LoadDeathScene", deathTime);
    }

    private void StartSuccessSequence()
    {
        audioSource.Stop();
        state = State.Transcending;
        audioSource.PlayOneShot(success);
        successParticles.Play();
        Invoke("LoadNextScene", transcendTime);
    }

    void LoadDeathScene()
    {
        SceneManager.LoadScene(0);
    }

    void LoadNextScene()
    {
        SceneManager.LoadScene(1);
    }

    private void RespondToRotateInput()
    {
        float rotationThisFrame = rcsThrust * Time.deltaTime;

        rigidBody.freezeRotation = true; //take manual control of rotation

        if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.D))
        {
            transform.Rotate(-Vector3.forward * rotationThisFrame);
        }
        else if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.A))
        {
            transform.Rotate(Vector3.forward * rotationThisFrame);
        }

        rigidBody.freezeRotation = false; //resume physics control of rotation
    }

    private void RespondToThrustInput()
    {
        if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Space))
        {
            ApplyThrust();
        }
        else
        {
            audioSource.Stop();
            mainEngineParticles.Stop();
        }
    }

    private void ApplyThrust()
    {
        rigidBody.AddRelativeForce(Vector3.up * mainThrust);

        if (!audioSource.isPlaying)
        {
            audioSource.PlayOneShot(mainEngine);
        }
        mainEngineParticles.Play();
    }
}

Got it fixed. I had to remove the rocket prefab from level 2, then re-add the particles directly to the rocket prefab and not from the level 1 inspector. Then once I re-added the rocket to level 2 it worked. I swear I had tried this already, but I guess I didn’t.
