 Emitter Stacking Particles Hello  I have a problem with my Shotgun... i have placed an emitter on the flash of the shotgun that emits particles when fired, but when i fire the desired particles that the emitter emits seems to stack for the amount of time it didnt fire eg. i fire after 1 sec and a few particles show.. i fire after 10 secs and the all the particles that would emit every 1 sec would stack upon until fired Any one got anything? heres my code for the emitter Code: AddEffect = AEmitter
PresetName = M1014 Flash Effects
Mass = 0.5
LifeTime = 5
RestThreshold = -500
Sharpness = 0
GlobalAccScalar = 0
HitsMOs = 0
GetsHitByMOs = 0
SpriteFile = ContentFile
FilePath = Base.rte/Null.bmp
FrameCount = 1
OrientToVel = 0.7
SpriteOffset = Vector
X = 0
Y = 0
EntryWound = AEmitter
CopyOf = Dent Metal
ExitWound = AEmitter
CopyOf = Dent Metal
AtomGroup = AtomGroup
AutoGenerate = 1
Material = Material
CopyOf = Military Stuff
Resolution = 2
Depth = 0
DeepGroup = AtomGroup
AutoGenerate = 1
Material = Material
CopyOf = Military Stuff
Resolution = 4
Depth = 1
DeepCheck = 1
AddEmission = Emission
EmittedParticle = MOPixel
CopyOf = Shot Particle Effect
ParticlesPerMinute = 150
BurstSize = 1
Spread = 3.14
MaxVelocity = 2
MinVelocity = 0.25
PushesEmitter = 1
AddEmission = Emission
EmittedParticle = MOSParticle
CopyOf = Shot Smoke
ParticlesPerMinute = 120
BurstSize = 1
Spread = 3.14
MaxVelocity = 5
MinVelocity = 0.25
PushesEmitter = 1
BurstTriggered = 0
EmissionEnabled = 1
EmissionsIgnoreThis = 0
BurstSize = 0
BurstScale = 0
BurstSpacing = 500
EmissionDamage = 0
Flash = None
FlashOnlyOnBurst = 0 Thx

Re: Emitter Stacking Particles This is a problem inherent in the game, it is not solvable (when using emitters attached to a MuzzleFlash).
What exactly are you trying to do? Add some effects to the firing?

Re: Emitter Stacking Particles Make it emit only once.
Also, this could be used to make weapons.

Re: Emitter Stacking Particles Did you even look at the coalition heavy sniper? It has an emitter that fires the bullet and the muzzle flash.

Re: Emitter Stacking Particles Coops9753 wrote: How can i make it emit once? Put BurstSize = 1 and ParticlesPerMinute = 0 into the BULLET EMISSION definition, and BurstSize = 3 or something and again, ParticlesPerMinute = 0 into the SMOKE EMISSION definition, and then remove it from later on in the aemitter's code, assuming you're copying vanilla stuff. Look at the Coalition Heavy Sniper (AND NOT THE VALUES HOLY CRAP THE SPEED IS STUPID) for more info.
