Make ParticleSystem start immediately + fog effect

[Tabaqui]

Hi all! I was able to replicate snow and rain effects using love's ParticleSystem, but I can't make them start immediately. As you can see in the demo there's a little delay before they actually start running at full speed. How can I do this?

And since I'm not very skilled with particles, is there any tutorial on how to implement a fog effect using love2d?

You'll have to kickstart the particles. Do something like this in love.load:

Code: Select all

local dt = .1
for time = 0, 2, dt do
	r:update(dt)
	s:update(dt)
end

Thank you, ReFreezed. This morning i've tried calling update passing 1 as dt but it didn't work. Your solution works perfectly!
