Particle icon appearing on screen

After the animation of my particle, a white icon appears (looks like shurikens) where the particle system was instantiated. Can someone explain to me its meaning and how to remove it? thanks!



Here's how I instantiate the particle :

Code (JavaScript):

1. var deathParticle:GameObject;
2. function Kill() {
3.     this.renderer.enabled = false;
4.     this.Destroy(this.GetComponent.<BoxCollider>());
5.     var particle = this.Instantiate(deathParticle, this.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
6. }

 

disable the particle renderer...see if that helps

 

Disabling the particle renderer doesn't change it. But destroying the object remove the particle including the mark.
I ended up doing this :

Code (JavaScript):

1. function Kill() {
2.     this.renderer.enabled = false;
3.     this.Destroy(this.GetComponent.<BoxCollider>());
4.     var particle:GameObject = this.Instantiate(deathParticle, this.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
5.     yield WaitForSeconds(1);
6.     Destroy(particle);
7. }

 

This is almost the same script I did in C#...for a player...instead of Instantiate..I disabled the particles and the sprite instead of destroying them

 

Are you sure your looking at your game view and not scene view?
I think the shuriken shows up in the scene view to tell you that a particle system exists at that current location. However in game view it goes away.

Edit: I think you can also disable the gizmo for it.
