3. Do some more tweaks to make it look like a thrust, set its speed to
50
, make the
initial alpha to
180
, and last and most importantly, set the scale to
0.2
so that it
matches the spaceship scale.
4. Now we have our spaceship thrust built, which will look like this:
5. The following are the values set in the particle editor of Xcode to create the thrust
of the spaceship using the default
FireParticle
file.
After this, one more particle effect called collision effect is left to be created when a coin
is picked by the spaceship. The following are the steps involved to make a
SmokeParticle
file (particle system) for the collision effect of the coin and the space-
ship:
1. Open Xcode and go to

2. In the
Resource
section of
iOS
, select
SpriteKit Particle File

fect is created and click on
