better way than this?

[desert sand]

is there any better way than this? like maybe an array but for controller animation?

[rugged hare]

What are you trying to accomplish here?

[winged badger]

I really don't understand what you're trying to do. Explain better what your particles are and what function they perform.

I think your problem is easy to solve, but please explain better.

and it would be good if they also showed the texture of the particle to better understand

[desert sand]

oh yeah mb

[desert sand]

basically, uhm, i want to have a customizable particle system circling around my entity, but the thing is i have 45 particles

each of that p1,p2,p3... is an animation with only particle in effects

[winged badger]

mmm but what are the particles for, do they all appear at the same time? How does it work? Or what are they for?

[desert sand]

you can see it here:

i have 2 locators which spins with an animation, then I check for entity property to determine which particle type should show up to the locator

[winged badger]

ah ok then this is the best way

[desert sand]

oh, so theres no other than it? damn

i thought i could do arrays in it xd

[winged badger]

Well yes it could be done but it is much more complicated.

Well, not really complicated, but more extensive.

You would have to separate your locators into different geometries then you could use arrays in a render controller

[desert sand]

how tho? i want to know how to transfer it in arrays like in render controllers

[winged badger]

The way you did it with animation controllers is the easiest way to do it

Your particles are totally different, right?

You couldn't put all the particles into one either.

[winged badger]

If your particles had the same amount of frames and the same behavior it might be possible

[desert sand]

yeah

[desert sand]

oh, i believe you are suggesting to manually modify the variables in the animation effects?

[winged badger]

No, just change the UV of your particles in relation to your property

If your particles are different it ends up being much more complicated.

[desert sand]

oh yeah i thought of that too, but i have some particles that has UV animation, and some that don't

i think ill just keep it manual way

[winged badger]

That way is the simplest, I really don't know why you want to change it :v

[desert sand]

its just looks like a bad code for me thats why

[winged badger]

Ah, I see, it's because you know the script, it's normal that you want to find the most compressed form XD

[molten garnet]

Uh yes you can just use commands

I thought it was something complicated like a round ball of particles

Get like 4-5 entities, can be custom or like invisible immortal bats

Place them on top of the chest

Then just do /execute as @e[type=bat] at @s run /tp @s ~~~~9~

Afterwards

/execute at @e[type=bat] run /particle minecraft:basic_flame_particle ^^^+1

[winged badger]

It seems you have not understood the problem, that is more complicated because it needs another entity, and commands for the 30 different particles. It has a single animation that will rotate the particle no matter what it is, the animations vary only in the generation of particles so the problem is not the particle's rotation effect, the problem is making it so that it does not need to name each state to invoke an animation, just to have a cleaner and simplified code.

[desert sand]

commands are not a good alternative for this case, but thank you for your idea

i want my system to be native with scripts or with animations to avoid lags

[molten garnet]

So it's 30 different particles?

I've just seen a few seconds of the video I assumed that's what he was struggling with

[desert sand]

yeah its more than that
