Unity Script Reference – ParticleAnimator.colorAnimation

ParticleAnimator.colorAnimation

var colorAnimation : Color[]

Description

Colors the particles will cycle through over their lifetime.

Currently you cannot directly modify a single index of this array. Instead, you need to grab the entire array, modify it, and assign it back to the Particle Animator.
