How to create this effect?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello,
So I’m making a tapping simulator, now if you’ve played some, you might see this effect:

If you watch the gif, you will see that when I click the button, clicking symbols appear.

I tried using Particle Emitters, but they don’t go down or anything like that, I have tried a few other things too, but none of them work. I’m sure there’s a simple way to create something like this

I assume you need to use a script, hence why I put it in #help-and-feedback:scripting-support

I’ve googled it but can’t find anything. I’m not asking for a script, just how to do it!

Thank you!

This is a UI effect, so it should be using

TweenService and Instance.new or :Clone()

Which effect are you talking about?

#4

The effect where the clicking icons come out of the player in different directions.

#5

I’m pretty sure thats not possible with particle emitters and the mouses are different sizes so its a ui effect or something else

#6

That’s definitely a ParticleEmitter. It’s using the ParticleEmitter.Acceleration property to create a gravitational pull, and the ParticleEmitter.SpreadAngle property to shoot them in different directions.

#7

If it’s a particle emitter then just put acceleration’s y axis up and make the ParticleEmitter direction down, change the speed to 50

#8

Oh ok, its because I mainly work on UI and not particle emitters

#10

I came across another issue. How would I activate it from a script. If I change the rate from 0 to 0.4, sometimes it doesn’t appear in time.

You can use ParticleEmitter:Emit() to emit any amount of particles at once. Simply enter a parameter for how many particles you wish to emit.
