visionOS – Anchoring particle system to hand also anchors spawned particles
Dear Apple Developer Forums, I am just starting out developing in Swift, using RealityKit and Reality Composer Pro, as a project I'm working on is transitioning from using Unity to native only. I am trying to attach a particle system to the user's right hand, emitting from a single point, showing a 'spatial trail' of sorts, basically acting as a visualizer of the hand's spatial history. However, in Reality Composer Pro, when I anchor my particle emitter's parent entity using an Anchor component, even though the "Particles Inherit Transform" option is unticked (false), all of the spawned particles will also be anchored to the specified anchor position, as opposed to the expected behavior, which is that the emitter itself is anchored, but the spawned particles retain their spawn position in worldspace. Am I missing something, or does anchoring simply behave this way in relation to particle systems? Thank you! RCP 1.0, Xcode 15.4, visionOS 1.2
