Hopefully this is simple.

I am attempting to create a particle emitter that can continuously rotate a spawned particle.

Is this supported in Defold?

Surely!

If I understand what you want to achieve correctly, the simplest way is to animate the particle’s **Angular Velocity** in the Particle FX editor.

Select the emitter, find the particle **Angular Velocity** propertym, and set a non-zero value or a curve. This rotates each spawned particle continuously over its lifetime.

If you want every particle to spin at a constant rate, use a flat Angular Velocity curve or the value only.

This is exactly what I am looking for. Thank you very much.
