I keep attempting to copy a particle prefab and change its color but when I do that the last one changes its color too. I just cant figure this out. Any ideas?
A prefab is just an instance of an object - by making something a prefab and then adding it to your scene you are telling unity to keep the settings the same. Make a second particle and make a new prefab of it and you can then change the colors separately.You could also simply add some component that will break it from the prefab and then change the color. Either way the point of the prefab is to keep the two the same.
I tried adding a component didint do anything to make it a diferent prefab for some reason. I just want to basically copy the first and make a second one with a different color.
