#Bug/Improvement: Ripple RGB effects occasionally block each other.

This is a very minor bug but I just have to point it out as someone who has their keyboard shaded blue and key presses set to simulate water ripples -
With the "Ripple" RGB effect, the ripples caused by multiple key presses sometimes cannot pass each other. This is best reproduced by setting your keyboard RGB effect to "Ripple" and ensure the effect is visible on your keyboard. Then press one key at one end of your keyboard and another key at the other end at the same time or in very quick succession and watch as one ripple sometimes gets absorbed by the other one in a seemingly random fashion. The two effects should always pass each other until both make it to the opposite ends of the board.
It's minor, but I have to point it out because I'm loving it and I want it to be perfect.

# hearty prairie I can't believe that someone else uses the same colours and effects as me. I get...

HAHA yeah i have been doing the same, admittedly.
This is the first programmable RGB thing I've had so I'm having fun customising... and i like water so that's how i've had it set once i got bored of the rainbow vomit lol

I've found it depends on which one gets there first. If a wave tries to move to a key that another wave is already on, one of them will be deleted. I've had some of them pass each other fine though, and sometimes only the bottom row (I.E the space bar) will be fine but the rest of it will be erased.

EDIT: I should point out I set the background brightness to 0% for the video but I have it so keys are always 75% brightness until one is pressed.

maybe they should add this fix as an option so you can still play Wave-Wars on your keyboard lmaoo

even better, just add games! I'd love to play Tetris using my keyboard as a display! What a flex!

@stuck sleet is the SPI standard 8 meg?

neat frigate
#

unsure how the SPI is related to this

hearty canyon
#

well everything is stored onto the SPI isn't it?

neat frigate
#

SPI doesnt store data? im confused as to what you mean

hearty canyon
#

I meant the eeprom

neat frigate
#

why do you wanna read the flash storage? @hearty canyon

hearty canyon
#

there should be plenty space to add anything right?

neat frigate

sure but it wont do anything. the extra flash is for profile storage and nothing else
