Effects are particle emitters in Blockate. Before learning about effects, you should already know a bit about commands and how to find them. There are eleven commands associated with effects! There are so many different variations and modifications possible, sometimes they get confusing.
Using the !effect Command
To add effects to a block, simply type !effect (preset/custom ID) in the chat while hovering your mouse over a certain side of a block. Effects can be added to any type of block.
Example: !effect 2269293294 front
Types of Effects (Custom ID's/Presets)
Effects can display any decal or image uploaded on Roblox. When adding effects, the ID, a series of numbers, are inputted after the command.
Decals and images
Decals can be found on the Library page on Roblox (in the decals category). Also, any decal can be uploaded for free on the Create page. The ID of a decal is found on the URL of the webpage.
Images could also be used by using browser plugins like Roblox+ to access them. They are not compressed by Roblox.
Presets
Sometimes it's inconvenient to have to go through the process of finding a decal and getting its ID. That's why Blockate has some presets you could use. The presets include smoke, fire, wheat, grass, grasstall, plant, drip, and sparkles. The decals for all action blocks can also be used. For example, you could use tele, kill, mtele and sign.
Example: !effect grasstall front
Choosing a side
To choose a side of a block where effects will be emitted, you could simply hover your mouse over that side, but sometimes it's more efficient or convenients to include that information in the command itself. That side of the block could be hidden behind another block, or it's just too much effort to move your camera. Every block has six sides.
These sides can be included after the !effect command. To see the sides of a block, you could test it on another block or you could use the !showaxis command.
Trial and error
You can tell the rest of the sides of a block just by knowing the front. The opposite side is the back, and the adjacent sides are the right and left sides. The top and bottom sides need no explanation. You could place down a block and do !cannon 1 front on it to know the front.
Using !showaxis
If you haven't rotated your selection and lost the original orientation of it, you could use the !showaxis command. This command displays the top and front of your selection.
Then, you can use the front to know the rest of the faces. This command is disabled/enabled by repeating it again.
Removing the Decal
If you dislike the decal automatically added to blocks with effects, you could use the !hidedecals command to hide it. It can be shown again with the !showdecals command.
