Float Schedule Description

Manage and generate schedules for floating-point values in animation and procedural generation tasks, aiding AI artists in creating smooth transitions and dynamic changes.

Float Schedule:

The SaltFloatScheduler node is designed to manage and generate schedules for floating-point values, which can be used in various animation and procedural generation tasks. This node is particularly useful for AI artists who need to create smooth transitions and dynamic changes in their visual or audio projects. By leveraging this node, you can define a sequence of float values that change over time, allowing for precise control over animations, effects, and other time-dependent parameters. The main goal of the SaltFloatScheduler is to provide a flexible and intuitive way to handle float value scheduling, making it easier to achieve complex and visually appealing results.

Float Schedule Input Parameters:

schedule_list

The schedule_list parameter is a list of float values that define the initial schedule. This list serves as the base sequence of values that will be manipulated and transformed by the node. The length and specific values in this list will directly impact the resulting schedule, as they provide the foundation for any applied transformations or easing functions. There are no strict minimum or maximum values for this parameter, but the list should contain enough values to represent the desired schedule accurately.

fade_type

The fade_type parameter determines the type of easing or fading effect to apply to the schedule. It can take one of three values: "in", "out", or "in-and-out". The "in" option applies a fade-in effect, gradually increasing the values from the start of the schedule. The "out" option applies a fade-out effect, gradually decreasing the values towards the end of the schedule. The "in-and-out" option combines both effects, creating a smooth transition that peaks in the middle of the schedule. This parameter is crucial for creating smooth and natural transitions in your animations or effects.

strength

The strength parameter controls the intensity of the easing effect applied to the schedule. It is a float value that determines how quickly the values change during the fade-in or fade-out process. Higher values result in more pronounced easing effects, while lower values create more subtle transitions. This parameter allows you to fine-tune the smoothness and dynamics of your schedule, ensuring that the resulting animation or effect matches your creative vision.

start_index

The start_index parameter specifies the starting point within the schedule_list from which the easing effect should begin. It is an integer value that allows you to delay the application of the fade effect, leaving the initial part of the schedule unchanged. This parameter is useful for creating more complex schedules where only a portion of the values need to be modified. The default value is 0, meaning the easing effect starts from the beginning of the schedule.

Float Schedule Output Parameters:

faded_schedule

The faded_schedule parameter is the resulting list of float values after applying the specified easing effect to the schedule_list. This output represents the transformed schedule, with values smoothly transitioning according to the chosen fade_type and strength. The faded_schedule can be used directly in your animations, effects, or other procedural generation tasks, providing a seamless and visually appealing result.

Float Schedule Usage Tips:

  • To create a smooth fade-in effect, set the fade_type to "in" and adjust the strength parameter to control the intensity of the transition.
  • For a gradual fade-out effect, use the "out" option for the fade_type and experiment with different strength values to achieve the desired smoothness.
  • Combine both fade-in and fade-out effects by selecting "in-and-out" for the fade_type, which is ideal for creating transitions that peak in the middle of the schedule.
  • Use the start_index parameter to delay the application of the easing effect, allowing you to create more complex and varied schedules.

Float Schedule Common Errors and Solutions:

"Invalid schedule_list format"

  • Explanation: This error occurs when the schedule_list parameter is not provided in the correct format, such as a list of float values.
  • Solution: Ensure that the schedule_list is a properly formatted list of float values, with each value representing a point in the schedule.

"Invalid fade_type value"

  • Explanation: This error occurs when the fade_type parameter is set to a value other than "in", "out", or "in-and-out".
  • Solution: Verify that the fade_type parameter is set to one of the valid options: "in", "out", or "in-and-out".

"Strength value out of range"

  • Explanation: This error occurs when the strength parameter is set to a value that is not a valid float or is outside the acceptable range.
  • Solution: Ensure that the strength parameter is a valid float value and adjust it to a reasonable range that produces the desired easing effect.

"Start index out of bounds"

  • Explanation: This error occurs when the start_index parameter is set to a value that is outside the bounds of the schedule_list.
  • Solution: Check that the start_index is within the valid range of indices for the schedule_list and adjust it accordingly.
