Adjust Cone in a Shuriken Particle System

Questions & Answers
1

Hi, all! I have a shotgun effect that works using the cone projection. I’d like to be able to vary the width of the end of the cone of a shuriken particle system via code. Any way to do this? Thanks! - YA

I have looked at the documentation on the particle system. As of now, there is no way to do this via code.

I can provide you with an alternative though:

  1. Place multiple PS with varying cone-width in the same location
  2. Assign these PS as an array of PS in your script (perhaps sorted by size, start from the smallest cone size and put the largest in the end?)
  3. Fire whichever one you want to the script (either random, or by size if the assigned PS is sorted by cone-size)
