ParticleSystem.EmitParams.angularVelocity

Description

Override the angular velocity of particles this system emits.

This value will be ignored if the Particle System uses either of the velocity modules.

Additional resources: ParticleSystem.Particle.angularVelocity.

// In this example we have a Particle System emitting aligned particles; we then emit and override the rotation speed every 2 seconds.
public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour

    private ParticleSystem system;

    void Start()

        // A simple particle material with no texture.
        Material particleMaterial = new Material(Shader.Find("Particles/Standard Unlit"));

        // Create a Particle System.
        var go = new GameObject("Particle System");
        go.transform.Rotate(-90, 0, 0); // Rotate so the system emits upwards.
        system = go.AddComponent<ParticleSystem>();
        go.GetComponent<ParticleSystemRenderer>().material = particleMaterial;

        // Every 2 seconds we will emit.

    }

    void DoEmit()
    {
        // Any parameters we assign in emitParams will override the current system's when we call Emit.
        // Here we will override the rotation speed. All other parameters will use the behavior defined in the Inspector.
        var emitParams = new ParticleSystem.EmitParams();
        emitParams.angularVelocity = 180.0f;
        system.Emit(emitParams, 10);
