Particles Disappearing Instantly Instead of Fading Away

Unity Engine

I have a particle system in which the particles are sort of “instantly disappearing” at the end of their little individual particle bit lives, instead of gradually fading out first.

I’m sure this is the result of my missing the subtle interplay between two or more particle system parameters, but I cannot through any amount of tweaking, figure out which ones they are.

Can anyone out there offer any suggestions?

That’s solved by using the transparency bar in the color settings. Just make sure the second-to-last color is at 50% opaque and the last color is at 100% opaque.

Edit: Oops! Sorry. 0% opaque for the last.

Under the Particle Animator object’s “Does Animate Color” entry, right?

Yup. Sorry about the above typo.
