    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a VFX effect, where particles render a line behind them. The problem is, that the particle trail is only rendered as dots and barely visible when I add a "Turbulance"-Node. When I set the size it also has nearly no impact, except when I set it to 5000000 but then they also go all the way up into the sky.
    Does anybody know what could be the cause of that?

    The Red Line is the Trail

    And this is how my VFX graph looks like

    Thank you in advance!

    Morning :)
    From your Screenshot, I think that you're missing an Orient Block in the Output Context. The Orient Block is responsible for setting the Axis.X Axis.Y Axis.Z, attributes that determines how to orient your particles, Meshes, strips. What should they face ? How should they align themselves etc...
    So try to add an Orient Block and set the Mode to : Face Camera Position.

    Hope this help. Have a great day
