Command Types[]

!effect[]

The !effect command is the most basic command in this set. It uses the syntax !effect (texture name/id) [side] Apply an effect by hovering your mouse over the side of a block then using the command. Particles will be emitted from that side. Alternatively, you can use [side] to specify which side you want it to be on.

!effect size[]

!effect size uses the syntax !effect size (size) [side]. It changes the size of each particle on the specified side. The default size is 1, minimum is 0.5 and maximum is 100.

!effect color[]

!effect color uses the syntax !effect color (brickcolor) [side]. It sets the color of the effect on the specified size. Only colors preset by roblox can be used.
