I’m currently having an issue where all 5,000 of my particles spawn at once and disappear after their lifetime parameters, no more particles appear even though the end frame is still set to 250. This problem is occurring while making the smoke particle effect for the Low Poly Rocket.
Hey :)
1 - Is the particle system attatched to the right component ?
2 - Are you sure you haven't set a keyframe by accident in the timeline for the lifetime property ?
Could you send a screenshot ?
Really sorry for the late reply!
Heres the link to the file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/16npno8o4OdpAbLT_iP81gzjFhwc9TTJB/view
The particle effect can be extremely inconsistent, sometimes they spawn and just sit in the cone of the rocket, other times it's one large plume of smoke, occasionally the particles explode across the screen, and there are times that they don't spawn at all. At least those are the issues I've encountered.
Thank you, I appreciate the assistance.
Just figured out that my school email restricts anyone outside of the district from accessing my google files so I'm going to have to find a way around that. Infuriating. I had to ask my administrators to find out the problem.

This should be the updated link and if it doesn't work you guys don't have to worry about it. Really sorry for how long this took, hopefully this will be an end to the problems.
Well, I have no idea what's wrong with your file, but I removed the Particle System and then added a new one with (as far as I could tell) the same settings (not a copy...) and it seems to work as expected now:

Let us know if there is any problem...
I did notice that for some reason there is a huge difference in file size, again, no idea why;)
