.setActive(true) not functioning.

Questions & Answers

Hello,

I am working with a few objects with particle systems attached. I am attempting to disable and re-enable these objects withe gameObject.setActive(false) and gameObject.setActive(true) respectively and while setActive(false) works fine I cannot seem to get setActive(true) to function. I am calling both from a parent object, so I am not just skipping the code to re-enable the gameObject.

My disabling code.

for (int i = 0; i < _Rain.Length; i ++) {
	for (int x = 0; x < _Rain*.particleEffect.Length; x ++) {*
<em>		_Rain *.particleEffect [x].gameObject.SetActive (false);*</em>
_*	}*_
_*}*_
_*```*_
_*My enabling code.*_
_*```*_
_*	if (x == rainAmount) {*_
<em>*		for (int y = 0; y < _Rain[x].particleEffect.Length; y++) {*</em>
<em>*			_Rain [x].particleEffect [y].gameObject.SetActive (true);				*</em>
_*		}*_
_*```*_
_*These are both called from a co-routine in a seperate object and class from the particleSystem.*_

It could be possible that your particles have an ‘exit time’. If this is the case, then you are setting it active but the particle system has nothing left to play. Hence you not being able to see anything.
