    Hello guys,

    I need your help please. I have a particle generator that makes spheres of light that don't die they just stay and move randomly around the source object (like bees orbit around the hive). Now I want to select with mouse/touch a few of them and move them somewhere to attack or collect or whatever.
    Once the particles are generated are they considered standalone objects to which I can attack behavioral scripts to, or I cannot manipulate those particles to move and fight and do stuff?.

    The example is in game Auralux or Eufloria...

    Don't know if what you want is possible with sock unity particle system but you could just instantiate them as separate gameobjects and then manipulate them as you wish with your scripts.
