2D Particle Emitter

#1

This module aims to mimic the existing Roblox ParticleEmitter object to make it easier to create 2d particles and port over existing particle emitters (with a few tweaks of course!)

Short video of this module in action, along with a comparison:


Notable changes that you have to account for when making your own particle emitter:

  • Speed determines how much the particle progresses in pixels (offset) per second.
  • Size is in offset.

You can get and view the source code via Github or the Roblox Creator Store.
A quick usage example can be found within the Github provided above.

Here is another demonstration of what this module is capable of.
Made these today for my game which took a few hours to do.

2D Particle Emitter v0.0.3

  • Replaced math.random with the Random class internally
  • Added .fromParticle constructor function which lets you create a 2d particle object using an existing particle emitter as a base

Example usage:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local ParticleEmitter = require(ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("ParticleEmitter"))

-- Size & Speed are being set here because they work very differently
-- from regular ParticleEmitters

local sparklesEmitter = ParticleEmitter.fromParticle(script.ParticleEmitter)
sparklesEmitter.Size = NumberSequence.new({
	NumberSequenceKeypoint.new(0, 3.75),
	NumberSequenceKeypoint.new(0.175, 15),
	NumberSequenceKeypoint.new(1, 0),
})

sparklesEmitter.Speed = 15
sparklesEmitter.Parent = script.Parent

Nope, it only took a few hours because I had to come up with ideas for these particles
Refer to the example given above or within the Github to get started
