ParticleSystem2D Component Reference

The ParticleSystem2D component is used to read the particle asset data and perform a series of operations such as play, pause, destroy, etc. Particle assets support plist files and images, both of which are recommended to be placed in the same folder.

Click the Add Component button at the bottom of the Inspector panel and select ParticleSystem2D from Effects to add the ParticleSystem2D component to the node.

For the script interface of ParticleSystem2D, please refer to ParticleSystem API.

ParticleSystem2D Properties

Property	Description
CustomMaterial	Custom material, please refer to the Custom Material documentation.
SrcBlendFactor	Source Blend Factor, please refer to SrcBlendFactor API.
DstBlendFactor	Destination Blend Factor, please refer to DstBlendFactor API.
Color	Color of particles.
Preview	Previews particles in editor mode. When enabled, particles will be played automatically in the Scene panel when they are selected.
PlayOnLoad	If this option is checked, the particles will be emitted automatically at runtime.
AutoRemoveOnFinish	Automatically destroys the node where the particle is located when it finishes playing.
File	The particle configuration file in Plist format.
Custom	Whether to allow custom particle properties. When this property is enabled, the particle properties of the following sections can be customized.
SpriteFrame	Customizes the texture of particles.
Duration	The duration of the particle system in seconds, -1 means continuous emission.
EmissionRate	The number of particles emitted per second.
Life	The running time and range of particles.
TotalParticle	The maximum number of particles.
StartColor	The initial color of particles.
EndColor	The end color of particles.
Angle	The angle and range of particles.
StartSize	The initial size and range of particles.
EndSize	The end size and range of particles.
StartSpin	The initial spin angle and range of particles.
EndSpin	The end spin angle and size of particles.
PosVar	The range of the emitter position (horizontal and vertical).
PositionType	The type of particle position, including FREE, RELATIVE, GROUPED. For details, please refer to PositionType API.
EmitterMode	The type of the emitter, including GRAVITY, RADIUS. For details, please refer to EmitterMode API.
Gravity	Gravity. Only works when Emitter Mode is set to GRAVITY.
Speed	The speed and range. Only effective when Emitter Mode is set to GRAVITY.
TangentialAccel	The tangential acceleration and range of each particle i.e. the acceleration perpendicular to the direction of gravity. Effective only when Emitter Mode is set to GRAVITY.
RadialAccel	The radial acceleration and range of particles, i.e. the acceleration parallel to the gravity direction. Effective only when Emitter Mode is set to GRAVITY.
RotationIsDir	Whether the rotation of each particle is equal to its direction. Effective only when Emitter Mode is set to GRAVITY.
StartRadius	The initial radius and range, which indicates the distance of particles relative to the emitter when it is launched. Effective only when Emitter Mode is set to RADIUS.
EndRadius	The end radius and range. Valid only when Emitter Mode is set to RADIUS.
RotatePerS	The rotation angle and range of particles around the initial point per second. Only effective when Emitter Mode is set to RADIUS.
