Effects

How can I use effects?

Effects are an easy way to animate channel values over a specific amount of time. An effect will block the channels specified from manual write over and calculates the smoothest way of getting from the current value of a channel to the required one in the specified amount of time.

dmxClient.effect([name, time, channel, value...])

dmxClient.effect("EFFECT name time channel value")

The time must be provided in ms, divisible by the DMXServers tick speed, which is normally set to 100ms(compile time option). You may chain up as many (time, channel, value) pairs as you like. Please note that the leading name must be supplied for features yet to come, it can be a str or int and only has to be given once.
