A forum post by Enigma_0123

As far as I can tell, jet trails can only form from movement in global space. Suppose you have a group, and within the group is a jet trail that traces a line relative to the other objects in the group. If you were to move this group in global space, then all the objects will move together but the existing jet trail flecks will stay behind and follow their trajectory as if the group had never moved. I’m wondering if it’s possible to move a jet trail in such a way that all existing flecks will move along with it.

You could manage a silly workaround where you have all objects in the scene move except for the jet trail group, but this would only work if only one such object existed in the scene. You could never have two jet trails that move independently of one another.

You could also emit the individual flecks yourself but you would need to emit possibly thousands of them to get a long and smooth trail.

If there’s no way to do it, I’ll post the idea in the Feedback section, but I just thought I would ask all you geniuses out there first. Or maybe it’s easy and I’m missing something obvious.
