Fountain Path

Emits falling blocks like the Fountain effect, but follows a path.

Parameters

Parameters	Information	Example
Path	The path the origin of the fountain follows using the format of world, x1, y1, z1; x2, y2, z2; x3, y3, z3. You can of course repeat this process as much as you would like. Use a ; to separate different locations.	world, 196.3, 64, -381.8; 199.3, 65, -375.8; 205.8, 61, -361.8
Velocity	Sets the velocity of falling blocks. This is used to launch falling blocks in a specific direction. Don't set these values too high (I would say around a maximum of 10). Follows the pattern of x, y, z.	1, 1.5, 0
Block	The block to use as falling block. Items will not work!	BLUE_STAINED_GLASS
BlockData	The block data of the block (if it has any). For example an open gate, a rotated stair, ... Use [] to set none.	[open=true]
Randomizer	This randomizes the value of the velocity a bit. The higher the value, the more the velocity changes. I suggest keeping this between 0 and 1.	0.5
Speed	The speed the origin moves over the path. Measured in blocks/s.	5
Frequency	In Minecraft a new entity or particle spawns every tick, but when the speed is very high an empty space comes between two entities or particles. To fix that you can use the frequency parameter. The frequency is how many entities/particles there should be every block. This effect only activates when the speed is too big that the amount of entities or particles per block is lower than the frequency.	5
Smooth	Whether the animation of the path should be smooth or not. Can be set to true or false.	true
Delay	The amount of ticks this effect waits after the show starts before its activation.	40

Frequency extra info

In Minecraft a new entity or particle spawns every tick, but when the speed is very high an empty space comes between two entities or particles. To fix that you can use the frequency parameter. The frequency is how many entities/particles there should be every block.

This effect only activates when the speed is too big that the amount of entities or particles per block is lower than the frequency.

An example is when a particle line travels 10 blocks forward with a speed of 1 and a frequency of 5. The frequency will not be activated because the speed is 1 block per second which means that there will be 20 particles on one block and 20 is bigger than 5. If we change the speed to 10 then it'll travel with 10 blocks per second. Meaning that there should normally only spawn 2 particles on every block! This is where the frequency kicks in to spawn extra particles to fill in the gap.
