How to stop emitter after it’s lifespan done ???

You may want to look into the explode method.

yes it does the work … but i am using img to create the flow … explode mode makes the flow disappear instantly … any idea with noraml flow mode using stop method … thank you

You can use .start and .stop, which will set the emitter’s .on value.

i am trying to listen to any event or use an interval related to the emitter then will call .stop() … how can i capture the time the emitter was alive within it … thank you for help .

Hey Andrew,
I would suggest just creating a timer event with the same lifespan as the particles and stop the emitter at the end of the time.

Ex:

this.emitter = this.add.particles('myTexture').createEmitter({
    lifespan: 1000,
    speed: 100
});
this.time.delayedCall(1000, ()=>{
    this.emitter.stop();
});
