    Particle Inheritance Morphing GIF 4:24:19.gif

    So, my triangle's thruster is morphing into the surrounding stars. The teeny tiny stars are sub-emitters from the other stars passing by at a quick rate. Somehow though, the thruster is inheriting? the star sprite?

    Solved the issue, it was just my Sorting Layers.

    What's weird is, it's like the Engine needs 'something' between the Particle Systems. The stars are on Default @ 0, the Rocket is on Default @ 5 and the Thruster is on Default @ 6. This seems like normal intended behavior, I'm new to the Particle System.

    It is a cool idea right? Maybe the rocket hits a certain star and gets a boost.
