Very interesting asset. I'm considering buying it for myself. One small question though, does it support preview in timeline or animation?

 

Hey, thank you for your interest! Currently, it doesn't support simulation preview in the timeline, but you can send Play/Stop/Pause actions and/or change parameters over time from the timeline track

 

Particle Image v1.1.0 is now available for download!



Features:
- Included complete C# source code
- Enabled support for multi-object editing

Fixes:
- Resolved Camera Null Exception during scene transitions
- Fixed particle preview functionality when the parent object has a Mask component.
- Implemented a temporary solution for the Undo NullException in the Curve Editor
- Corrected autoplay behavior when assigning a new parent object
- Fixed the issue of OnLastParticleFinish event being called twice
- Various minor bug fixes and optimizations

Change:
- For converting particles from version 1.0.0 to new C# script reference, navigate to: Tools > AssetKits > Particle Resolver

 

Just to be clear: This does NOT support UI toolkit, right? Because the thread is tagged "ui toolkit"!

 

Thanks for clarifying! Currently, the UI toolkit is not supported, but it is within our scope and we are working on it

Great asset, thanks. Bought and rated with 5 stars

One thing I noticed... For Attractor if you choose Point Mode it works as expected. But if you select Surface Mode then it doesn't work as expected if the Pivot is not the default (0.5, 0.5) for the target. Try it yourself by setting some weird pivot for the target (like 10,10) but leaving the target in place - you'll see where the particles are attracted to.

Edit: Btw, I see in your code that besides Pivot you also rely on Size Delta of the target. That's not reliable approach, as Size Delta depends on anchors. You should rely on physical center of the target and rect's dimensions when calculating attractor's target
