Kill emitter particle on overlap

[Titus]

Hello,

Just a quick question. I want to kill any emitter particles that overlap with a sprite. I've tried:

	if(this.game.physics.arcade.overlap(this.emitter, this.sprite))
	{
		this.emitter.removeChildAt(0);
        //and this.emitter.removeChild();
	}

Make sure you use collide=true in Emitter#makeParticles.

Hi @samme,

 

thanks for the reply and sorry for my delayed one. I do have collide set to true in the makeParticles method and neither this.emitter.removeChild() or this.emitter.removeChildAt(0) remove the overlapping particle from the game world. They just move through it. Am i using these methods in the correct way (to remove the overlapping particles)? The overlap is definitely triggering because I have other stuff in the game that is working within the same IF statment.

this.game.physics.arcade.overlap(this.sprite, this.emitter, function (sprite, particle) {
    particle.kill(); 
});
