Percent (Gradient) Effect Layer

Last updated 10.01.2024

This layer is very similar to the Percent Effect Layer, but makes use of a gradient instead of a progress/background color. This layer does not have a background.

A gradient layer in progressive mode, with a red-green gradient assigned to the current millisecond

Properties

Name	Description
Current Value	The path of a State Variable or a number. This value represents the current value of whichever variable you are watching, e.g. health, ammo, etc.
Maximum Value	The path of a State Variable or a number. This value represents the value that is the maximum value of the percent layer. This will be your max health, or max ammo etc.
Percent Gradient	A gradient brush whose color will define the color the affected keys will take.
Background Color	For progressive effect types: the color that will appear if the key is not being shown in progress color. For "all at once": the color that will be mixed with the progress color depending on the current/max ratio.
Effect Type	All at once - All keys in the affected keys sequence share the same color. This color will be given by a blend of progress and background depending on the current/max ratio. For example: if progress is green, background is blue, current is 30 and max is 100: all the keys will be set to a blend of 30% green, 70% blue. Progressive/Progressive (Gradual) - The keys will light up in percent gradient pattern when they are active. For example: if there are 10 keys in the affected key list, current is 30 and max is 100: the first 3 keys will be set to the color of the gradient, the others will not be set.
Blink Threshold	If the current/max percentage is less than this value, the "active" keys will fade in and out.
Reverse Blink Threshold	If this is true, the current/max percentage must be greater than the threshold for the active keys to flash.
Affected Keys	A collection of keys that will display the progress bar or color. Note that for progressive effect types, the order of the keys in the list matters.
