    I'm building a side scroller. I have a ship with exhaust fumes.
    I am already moving the emitter according to the position of the ship which works perfectly.
    But the ship can have a certain velocity while staying inside the viewport.
    So I want all the particles to offset each frame ( as for instance the background does ).
    Is that possible? I do not want do move the BitmapRenderer of course.

    thanks

    The easy option would be to use the particles array, which is a property of the emitter. Each frame you grab the array and loop through it altering each particle's x and y properties to apply your offset.

    The more complex but more Flint like option is to create a custom action to apply your offset each frame.

    Either should work.
