    Like the title says, is there a way to set sorting layers between particles within the same system? I want to have some particles render over others within my effects.

    Hi, in the Visual Effect Asset inspector, there is a reorderable list that allows you to specify the order in which outputs are rendered.

    Ok, that's really cool and hopefully related to my problem too.

    Unfortunately, it's a bit hard to tell since I can't connect any dots between the names in the VFX asset inspector, and the nodes in my graph

    Are those based on order of being added to the graph? Placement on the graph? something else?

    I was just about to ask where the output render order was and found it was located here (for those also looking for it)
