Flint Particle System Forum - Do I NEED multiple emitters for multiple zones?

This works as expected if the previous particle simulation has completed, but if the previous simulation is still running, the existing particles jump to the coordinate space of the newly clicked MovieClip as the newly clicked MovieClip starts its own particle simulation.
I plan to have 3 different emitters for various effects for each MovieClip and would like to use a single emitter for each type so that I don't have 9 blocks of emitter declarations all being the same (other than the name of the emitter variable). ]]>

Not sure if this will work, but it might. ]]>
