I have used this emitter in the past without issues but suddenly it seems to not work. I can select it in the brick menu but nothing is emitted. Any ideas?
(yes the particle is there)

Does it work on the weapon itself?

[rkynick]

No.

Code: [Select]

datablock ExplosionData(RrocketExplosion)
{
   //explosionShape = "";
soundProfile = rocketExplodeSound;

   lifeTimeMS = 550;

   particleEmitter = RrocketExplosionRingEmitter;

Try changing the particle texture back to base/data/particles/cloud to test. Does [your add-on]/exp1spark exist? (If you've moved the files from where the script is it won't work)

[rkynick]

I tried that, still nothing.
