Rotating Particles bug? (Crash)

My editor is crashing when I try to preview the rotate behavior on a particle object, even if the particle animation is not playing. Here is the error:

Is it safe to make a rotating sprite for an android app? Wont it crash the game?

So apparently its not possible to add behaviors like rotate and sine to particles? Because its not working at all...

It is possible to add behavior but they dont do anything? Is that it?

Thanks for bringing this up, there have been some recent changes that can produce such a crash.

I don't think this would crash while previewing or an exported app though, as the editor and the runtime are separate.

Hi DiegoM I tried to preview the layout with the behaviors but they dont seem to be working... Particles are no rotating and trying to use Sine also wont do anything...

I tried creating a particle plugin instance in r201, and can confirm that trying to preview sine or rotate behaviours produces a crash in the editor. Unfortunately this is still an issue in r202 which came out today.

Both behaviours seem to work properly when I try to preview the layout though. Can you share the project where the behaviours don't work when previewing the layout?

Thanks for confirming the bug DiegoM

Maybe try creating a rotating and/or sine particle with a big "rate". I'm trying to rotate a sprite with a rate of "500" and maybe thats too much for C3 ? It's "one shoot" instead of continuous, which should be easier for the GPU to handle.

I'll try creating a new project just to test it.
