In 4.4.3 Acceleration in-game is always world space

Every acceleration node I’ve tried in cascade, even after disabling ‘Always in World Space’, continues to calculate the acceleration in World Space when in-game. As far as I can tell this is a bug and there’s nothing I’m able to do to resolve it.

Hey SwiftIllusion -

Have you set the Particle System to Use Local Space in the Required Module? Otherwise the whole system will use World Space.

Let me know -

If that is how it’s meant to work then it may be that “Initial Velocity” is incorrect. I checked and indeed in the required module it isn’t set to use local space, however it was using local space for Initial Velocity with “In World Space” not ticked inside the Initial Velocity module.

Hey SwiftIllusion -

So one more question when you are setting these parameters are you looking at the running effect in a level, the behavior of the preview window in Cascade can be deceptive sometimes.

Thank You

Thanks Eric, that helped me, I too was confused, assumed that turning off “Always In Worldspace” would have been enough but now I understand what that wording means.
