Unity - Intro to Custom Particle System Programming (Seek Behaviour Component Tutorial)

An introduction to creating custom components for Shuriken, Unity's powerful particle system. In this, we implement a simple example of a seeking behaviour. I recorded this on a large monitor in 4k, so my apologies if the text appears extremely small on your screen. I'll try fix this in future tutorials.

I have been writing words here and deleting and starting again, because I simply can not find the right words to describe how much I love your effects and tutorials. This is amazing! Please keep up the awesome work you are doing!

Hi everyone! This is my first tutorial in 4k, 60fps. I meant to have this uploaded last week, but I ran into some issues with my desktop's connectivity which prevented me from doing that. Anyways, here it is now. Next, I'll likely ease into the Plexus tutorial with Shuriken. I'm hoping this will be a nice little introduction into custom programming for Unity's particle systems.

The link to the finished script is in the video description! Have fun!!

Please keep videos like these going! I LOVE this. I didn't even know you could capture every single particle in an array. I did this immediately and I'm in love. I love this package, it's well worth the price! You do great work and can't wait to see what's coming!

Do you know some way of make an object follow the particle position? The exact opposite of this. Great video BTW. Thanks!

Not kidding man but you may just have saved my term paper! Much appreciated for sharing this with us!

Another awesome tutorial from an awesome tutor:)

[alaslipknot]

thanks man, for future videos plz increase the text size in your editor, it's even healthier for your eyes too ;)

[warcraft]

Love these kind of tutorials, would be amazing to get more of them :D
Good job on explaining it clearly aswell (imo) :)

[alianaberrysgamingchannel]

Hey thank you so much. I have been looking for this. Awesome

[nomadcrossfire]

woohoo! i was starting to get impatient waiting for this lol

[danamuise]

The "flee" functionality would be great for something like if the target was the sun emitting radiation and a nearby planet is being slowly blasted away

[Eiman]

hard to read even on 1080p. Zoom in code view would be a great idea

[Joseguepardo]

Hi :D... love your videos man, please don't stop T-T

[SNizel]

omg...I can't see the text. What font size is that 6? Maybe if you didn't have custom colors old guys like me would be able to see it. Oy...source code included....Thank you. Seriously....I'm impressed you can see like an eagle. The rest of us have to change our Display setting to 800x600 and hit ctrl - + to make things bigger...hehehe.

Great tutorial! Could you tell us what theme you are using for your text editor?

[marcelinoborges]

Is that the only way to achieve this effect? Because to me it looks like a huge amount of performance trouble, all this array realocation and calculation stuff happening every single frame...

Hi I want to create sam e king like connecting dots in shader graph..How can i do that?
