Spectrum Effect with Advanced Options!

New effect for donators! <3

I can start of by saying that this is my favorite spectrum I use for all of my storyboards! It has some cool options that will make it more spicy, and don’t worry, I already set up the best values for each configurable so you don’t have to find the spiciness on your own!

Some of the advanced configurables are:

MotionlessBars: this is for when a bar doesn’t expand in the y axis at all. Not being able to expand is a problem for most spectrums I’ve seen out there but this should be able to fix it! (default value: same as BarCount)
yScaleTweening: tweening is basically if the spectrum should expand smoothly or skip some keyframes. When toggled on it will use the value from yScaleSmoothness, otherwise the animation when a sprite expands will be like 5 fps or so, and it will of course be on beat with the song. (default value: True)
yScaleSmoothness: as mentioned above, this will decide the “frame rate” of the expand animation in the spectrum. Bigger value equals smoother expand animation. I only recommend to use a value higher than 100 when using BeatDivisor over 4. (default value: 100)
MovementEasing: self explanatory name, it decides the easing for when moving the position of the spectrum over time. (default value: None)
Width: not really THAT advanced but it decides the width of the spectrum as a whole. This is useful for when you want the spectrum to be the same width as the playfield. (default value: 300)
LogScale: recognizable from the stock spectrum effect, it’s a way to decide the overall scale in the y axis for the whole spectrum. (default value: 10)
NormalRotation: only rotates each sprite. (default value: True)
NormalRandomRotation: same as NormalRotation but it’s randomized. (default value: False)
WeirdRotation & WeirdRandomRotation: for you to explore! (default value: False)
UseHSLColor: a way to make the spectrum gradient (tool for HSL values here). (default value: False)
