More particle frustration

[Springheel]

Can anyone help me figure out why the hell this particle is rotating around in circles?

 

 

It is based on a image strip with 64 images (all of which are standing vertically). Here is the flame stage:

 

 

{

count 1

material textures/particles/candlestrip

animationFrames 64

time 1.0000

cycles .000

bunching 0.000

distribution rect 0.00 0.00 0.00

direction outward "0.000"

orientation view

speed "2.000"

size "2"

aspect "1.000"

//randomDistribution 1

boundsExpansion 0.000

fadeOut 0.00

fadeColor 0.000 0.000 0.000 1.000

gravity world -1.000

}

Didn't find out why it was rotating, but managed to stop it from doing so with an angle spawnarg.

Ah, good fix. I expect view aligned particles are set to do that by default since you didn't ask for it, and it'd make sense for dust fogs etc.

It's still doing weird things, but I'm making slow progress.
