Expansion to FX

In my example, you'll see where I envisioned the new buttons go to open add a new color(s) or (billboard(s) to the already established effect. How I imagine it works, is that if you want a range of colors for the effect to cycle through before it reaches its final one, you can keep adding colors to the stack. In this theory, a rainbow effect can be achieved. In the extra billboard(s) case, the software calculates each billboards spawning based on how many you have added. If you have two, they spawn 50/50. If you have 3, roughly 33/33/33, if you have four 25/25/25/25 and so on. This makes it so effects can have multiple stages (if given that extra programming) or even greater randomization.

It was just an idea I had today while messing around in the effects.

@Justin Some other thoughts I've had since this post:

-is the ability to have billboards rotate and/or flip similar to the Rotate Z axis at the bottom of the effects tab.
-the ability to have effects and/or billboards morph into other billboards/effects similar to how they can currently morph size and color.
-add a "ground" or "walls" kinetic aspect to the effect being worked on, where the object lands on or bounces off this space.
-(I think you've already said you planned to do this) but importing of effects from external softwares such as blockbench. Alternatively, you could expand the effect creator to add similar tools to the Object, Character, animator already in game and add the ability to place and move specific voxels frame by frame for effects.
