Unreal 5.5 Niagara Lightweight emitter does not support world space

[Teh_Ee_Ching]

Hi! Just figure out lighweight emitter and considering implement into project to save up the performance cost.

The problem I’m currently facing is the “world space” button is not working. Is this a bug?

I experienced the same thing. There is no Local/World space setting inside the properties (like it was at the non-lightweight type), only a small button in collapsed mode (but it doesn’t change anything).

Local Space

World space

Made the ws particle system orange & local blue

Blue can be rotated, orange shoots up no matter the emitter rotation (it’s in worldspace)

Location cannot be modified in lightweight only velocity.
