Stop particles

Think of an enemy you just killed spawning blood particles, they would spawn, travel some distance and stop there, without fading or being destroyed.

I've been playing with the particle properties, trying to set speed to zero after a while, but can't achieved this effect. How would be some good approach?

Thanks in advance!

Don't use particles, do this with sprites.

dop2000 got it, grateful!

Can't timeout if timescale is zero.

Wow, didn't think of that! Great idea, I'm going to use it in my game too.
