    here is my code, as far as I can tell the particle should live for 20 to 25 seconds and die off, but it doesn't. please help. firstParticleSystem = part_system_create(); part_system_depth(firstParticleSystem,0); grey = make_colour_rgb(93, 89, 89); dust = part_type_create()...

    SOLVED Sprite Parts as Particles?

    I have created a disintegration effect that breaks the sprite down into a bunch of objects containing part of the sprite. It works as intended, but is incredibly inefficient. What I want to do is to find a way to make it so that I can disintegrate multiple enemies at a time without taking the...

    Can you use multiple colors in a Particle Emitter?

    My game has been using particle emitters because I prefer the workflow a lot more, it just seems a lot cleaner to me than individually creating particles. However, I haven’t found a way to use multiple colors in an emitter. I thought part_type_color3 might do the trick, but that just fades each...

    Windows Particle Lab - A Particle Designer for GameMaker

    Do you like particles? I like particles. I also like making game dev tools, for some reason. Yesterday I thought it sounded like a fun idea to create a particle maker tool.

    Particle Systems and Time Manipulation

    SOLVED Checking For Active (Drawn) Particles

    Hello everyone. The title pretty much sums up my issue/question. I have the game paused and I don't want to unpause until a specific particle has completed its lifecycle (no more particles of that type are being drawn). So I want to use an if statement to check whether or not that particle is...
