Chat Bites Viewer Guide

Participating in Chat Bites as a viewer is easy! Make sure to introduce yourself in chat and then read the following to get a full understanding on what you can do!

Commands Effects Parameters Formatting Currency

Commands and effects are used by typing ! and the command prefix (set by the streamer, the default is "cb"), and then the command name.

Command	Description
!cb help	shows a help message in chat
!cb commands	shows a list of possible commands
!cb effect_name	sends an effect based on the name and other parameters
!cb show	shows how much currency you currently have
!cb players	shows the current list of players

Sending effects will use currency based on the effect, number of targets, and the streamers setup. Targeting multiple people will multiply the cost. For example if an effect costs 10 currency, and you target 6 people, that will be 60 used. The effects page lists the price of every effect so make sure you know how much you are spending.
Effects use an order based parameter system in order to change the effect.
Each effect has a help message if you don't know how to use it. Example: !cb boost help
Parameters can include input values, a time based duration, or player targets
Parameters with a ? at the end are optional, however order must still be preserved

Question marks following a parameter mark it as optional. When an effect has optional parameters, there are multiple combinations you can use to change the effect. In the case of the boost effect, both duration and target are the optional parameters. The syntax for the boost effect is as follows:
- !cb boost duration? target?
Therefore, other valid combinations are:
- !cb boost
- !cb boost target?
- !cb boost duration?

Chat Bites uses US-English lettering and numbering.
Time values are whole integer numbers (1 not 1.0) and if they are not provided default to 1 second. Time values have a limit set by the streamer.
Decimals use a period for formatting (ex: 2.0).

Currency is earned in Chat Bites through multiple ways. The amounts you earn are based on the streamer's setup. The available ways to earn currency are the following:
- Bits
