Edit: after thinking about it more on my way to work I think I’m using the trigger note wrong and it is setting the first effect but then a millisecond later going back to the previous effect hence why I see nothing changed. I’m going to try using a wait until node
ot a weird one…
This is part of a larger flow, but pretty much I’m having it check the current settings of our TV light strip, changing it to a different effect for 10s, then changing back to the original settings.
The top flow on picture works, in that it will set the light strip to the effect of “Police Lights Solid”. It of course, wont change it back after 10 seconds becauses there not service call at the end.
The bottom flow works, but I must press inject TWICE for the effect to be changed to “Police Lights Solid”.
I’m perplexed as to why adding the indicated Set lights service call at the end, causes the first inject not to change the effect?
In the pictures debug, the first message is when I pressed inject on the top flow (effect changes). The 2nd one is pressing inject on the bottom flow (effect didnt change), the 3rd one is pressing inject AGAIN on the bottom flow (effect changes)
