    Legacy GM [Solved] Avoiding Memory Leaks With Particle Systems

    The manual recommends destroying Particle Systems when not in use as to avoid a memory leak, I gather in case different objects keep making unique systems and they pile up in memory. I was just wondering, if I store the particle system, particle type and emitter in global variables that all...

    GameMaker Moving particle effect with camera

    Hi all. I'm using Gamemaker Studio 2. Creating an atmospheric fog using particle system. The problem is that the effect stays anchored in the 0,0 coordinate of the room rather than moving with the camera. I've implemented code that is intended to address this, but it isn't working. (Oddly...

    Delta time and particle system

    Hi guys, just a quick question. Is there any possible way to adjust the build in particle systems speed, lifetime etc. to delta time, or am I forced to use my own system?

    Legacy GM [SOLVED] Change particle colours with a button press

    Howdy folks. I've got it so the player can switch states when he presses 1, 2, 3 or 4 which changes the sprite colour and attack animation. That's all hunky dory. What I've now done is attach a particle system to the player object (so it leaves a trail behind them), which again works fine...
