[In 11.6.1] Chase light cue

[Mike Daniell]

The chase feature is almost ready - preliminary tests have been successful. I have a couple more changes to make and the Help file to update. Anyone who would like to run some more tests for me, let me know. Hopefully I'll have a pre-release ready by Friday.

I tested the chase light and its amazing.
Easy to set and test with the ability to check each step live.
And 480bpm is a very high speed.
It will be a very useful new feature.
No issues to report.

Great!!

Last week was my first time using the lighting function of SCS and it worked brilliantly for my musical theater production. For this particular company the results were better than any hardware or software console, due mainly to being able to directly tie cues to the audio. It has actually resulted in my being hired for more work.
A chase function would greatly improve the lighting portion of the program. I'm in production again next week. Any idea when this feature will be available?

The Chase feature in 11.6.1 has now been well-tested, so I've emailed you (Eric) details of a pre-release of 11.6.1 if you'd like to try this.

Just had a play with this- it looks good. Only thing that might be worth adding (unless it is already there and I've been a dunce) is to be able to copy the dmx values between the steps so that we can just change the values and not have to type in every light again. In Chases I often have up to 8 things changing on stage so for speed of programming this would be great.

Good idea. I'll try to get that in this release.
