Size/Scale or emitter

[Biggerplay]

What's the correct way to set the size of a particle from an emitter? I've tried scale.setTo, I've tried setSize, i've tried emitter.scale, nothing seems to have any effect.

the particles are simply Phaser Sprites. to change their scale, set it using 'p.scale.x = n; p.scale.y = m' or 'p.scale.setTo( n, m )'

 

be aware that the emitter selects a random size between 'minParticleScale' and 'maxParticleScale' when it emits the particle, so setting the scale must be done after that point.

 

if you wanted all the particles scaled the same, just set 'minParticleScale' and 'maxParticleScale' to the same value

If you want your particles to alter over time, like expanding smoke or shrinking them until they vanish, then remember that the emitter is just a fancy group,

and gives you functions like forEach, forEachAlive, and setAll.
