Gradient Parts

Gradient Parts change their Color and Transparency over time by using a UIGradient instance.

To improve performance, the shifting of Gradient Parts will temporarily pause when the player is further than a set distance away from the DistancePivot part.

All affected parts must either be named GradientPart or have a GradientPart tag.

Use Cases

Gradient Parts can be used for decoration. A few examples of these are pulsing parts and rainbow parts. Unlike Beams, which can have multiple colors at once, the color of Gradient Parts is uniform across all parts.

Gradient Parts automatically affect any applicable objects inside them as well. This can be disabled by adding a DoNotColor tag to any objects you don't want colored.

Configuration

Name	Default Value	Description
MaxDistance	100	The furthest the player can be from the DistancePivot before the Gradient Parts will pause to improve performance.
RefreshRate	30	How many times per second the Gradient Parts will update.
TickOffset	0	The offset in seconds for the shifting calculation.
Throttle	64	The part throttle limit. If there are more parts in a Gradient Parts group than the configured maximum, there will be a 1 frame delay every that amount of parts to improve performance.
