what i'm aiming to is sth. like that: click!, which i've written once by myself. i'm trying to convert that into a flint-based one to use some amazing features of it. but yet i haven't found a way to let the emitter remember which particle was set on which position. shall i try storing them on a complete own action which somehow iterates the particle-dictionary to move then them?

thanks in advance,

The particle object contains a dictionary property. This is intended for custom actions, initializers or any other custom code to store additional properties in the particle and would be the appropriate place to store the initial position of the particle so you can use it later.]]>
