Hello again, everybody!
I want to create a random strobe with a fixture which doesn't have this feature.
So I created a RGB-Matrix with strobe - single shot - as a mask and a script with a random wait time.
When I use the RGB-Matrix and the wait time in a script just copied down it works as intended - but only the count of lines in the script.
Is there a way I can tell a script to start over?
I already tried with a second script and start each other script - but this didn't work.
When I put the two steps to a chaser there is (on the first glimpse) no chance, that the steps use their internal duration.
Do I have to use the Loopback - function to start the next step on a chaser?
Greetings from germany,
Ingo

I got it kind of working with the loopback but after a short time the chaser hangs up and I have to stop it and then start again.
the chaser (each step infinite duration) consists of the following steps:
script 1:
script 2:
The "next" button of the cue list is linked to the loopback. Do I have to use a wait time after the RGB-Matrix in the length of the strobe shot?
the chaser (each step infinite duration) consists of the following steps:
script 1:
Code: Select all
startfunction:0 // RGB-Matrix strobe single shot
startfunction:5 // universe 4 - loopback - ch 1: 255
wait:5ms
stopfunction:5 // universe 4 - loopback - ch 1: 255
Code: Select all
wait:random(00s.10,01s.00)
startfunction:5 // universe 4 - loopback - ch 1: 255
wait:5ms
stopfunction:5 // universe 4 - loopback - ch 1: 255

I got a workaraound for that task. I had to think about it a long time but it is very simple:
Each fixture gets a own group. Multiple head fixtures are arranged in a column within the group.
Then I created a RGB Matrix for each fixture/group with the random column script. Then I changed the width of the group until I had the kind of random strobe I wanted to achieve.
When all RGB Matrixes were created I put them in a collection to start them simultanious.
That's how I got my random strobe working - just if someone is curious.
