Hello everyone,
I have an element in my scene and when the user interacts with it spawns particles. What I want to do is change it in a way so every time user interacts with it a different object (circle, triangle, square) is used as the material for this particle system. I also want to change the colors by creating an array of available colors too randomly choose from.
How can I achieve that?

You can’t change the material at runtime, but since you only have three different masks, you can switch between them using a dynamic parameter.
In the Niagara System, select the material in the sprite renderer. Now you can add a Dynamic Material Parameters module under Particle Spawn. Add a user parameter (float) and bind Shape to it.
Now you can control the parameter from blueprints:
If you manage to do this, changing color won’t be a problem to you. It’s the same: create a user parameter (vector or color), and bind particle color to it.
Hello and thanks for your help. I wonder if I can do this without Niagara since I’m just using a simple particle system.
