 A: Use a timer so it is set to static collider half a second or so after it has attached to the sticky area. The sticky area and static colliders overlaps in usage of some physics settings, so the sticky area needs to be done before you set the body as static. A: Use a timer so it is set to static collider half a second or so after it has attached to the sticky area.

 A: Check the colour setting for the particle and make sure that the alpha is not lowered. If the particle should be fainter, fade it with the colour setting instead (changing from white towards black makes the particle less visible). The alpha can then be left at full and the distance fade will work properly. A: Check the colour setting for the particle and make sure that the alpha is not lowered.

-**Q: How do I set up a particle with local movement that is properly affected by gravity (such as a directed explosion of sparks that fall to the floor)** \\ 
-A: Open the Movement tab. Set the Coord System to World, check Uses Direction, set the Gravity Type to vector and give the Acceleration (in the Gravity box) the desired value.
