Alerts for gifts, likes and follows TikTok in Thunderstream

Decide what exactly will trigger the alert

A follow, a like, and a gift are different events. Prepare a separate, readable rule name for each. This will prevent "250 likes" from being confused with a gift worth 250 coins.

To start with, enable just one rule. Confirm receipt of LIVE and select TikTok as the platform. Only after a successful attempt, add additional conditions or audience restrictions.

An example you can reproduce

Enter a threshold of 250, save, and then reopen the same named rule. The value should still be 250. Only then check the animation with the Test button. A real comment does not trigger the likes rule.

Threshold and example with likes

The graphics test confirms the appearance, but does not prove that the platform delivered 250 real likes. Separate the presentation test from testing the condition on real events. After editing, don't rely solely on the value that remains in the form field.

1. Add or expand alert for likes.
2. Enter your desired threshold, e.g. 250, in the field corresponding to the display condition.
3. Check how to count and repeat this rule. A one-time goal and an alert triggered after successive bursts of activity serve different purposes.
4. Click Save, check the saved value again, and only then perform the test.

Gift, number of pieces and number of coins

In a series of giveaways, the platform can provide updates on the ongoing combination. Check post-set behavior and rep setup rather than adding the same escalating message multiple times.

Use available dynamic fields from the editor in your content. Don't hard-code your test nickname or coin count if you want it to change for each event. Also make sure that these parts of the text are not hidden from the appearance of the alert.

Graphics and sound: selection, listening and recording

The visibility of a file in the selection window is not the same as recording an alert. After changing the material, perform a test of the saved configuration and final recording to check the audio capture as well.

1. Open the graphics or sound selection. Use the Magazine or Free Select available in the window.
2. View the graphic and listen to the audio before assigning. Pay attention to the length of the material and the volume.
3. If you are using the default gift image, verify that the correct image is provided by the event.
4. Save the entire rule. Reopen the audio selection and confirm that the selected material is still assigned.

Position and animation for this specific alert

Open the animation and position configuration for a given rule. Set X, Y, Scale, In, Stay and Out and the speed of effects. The position of the container and the animation of the element itself should not be judged solely by a still image.

First, preview your draft changes. Then save and use the test saved settings in the overlay source. Check the long nickname, more coins and the entire sequence until the exit is completed.

Adjust the volume and check your alert queue

Expand your configuration in stages. Separate rules for unique gifts and calmer alerts for frequent events make broadcasting easier, but each new rule should pass its own test.

1. Add a production alert link to the scene and set the correct source dimensions.
2. Run several tests spaced apart. Alerts should be clear and end according to the selected configuration.
3. If you use mute music or pause TTS during the alert, check that the level returns to normal when finished.
4. Record a short fragment. Confirm the nickname, image, value and single sound.

What do you see on the screen and how to fix it

Fix one thing at a time and try the same thing again. If you change several options at the same time, it will be difficult to determine what solved the problem. Don't delete a working source or entire configuration just because one widget isn't responding.

If you still need help, write down the program name and version, platform, approximate time of trial, expected result, and what actually happened. Attach a dump without passwords, keys and full private links. This description is much more useful than just the "not working" message.

Last attempt before use on LIVE

1. Save the changes using the button assigned to the edited function. If there are separate forms, check each changed part separately.
2. Open the settings again and compare the most important values. Simply moving the slider does not always mean a permanent save.
3. Check the result outside the editor itself: on the target scene, in the recording, or in the reopened configuration.
4. If the function uses the platform, separately acknowledge the new handled event during the active LIVE. Don't expect the appearance test to confirm account authorization.
5. Save the working values ​​and make a copy before the next major change. Next time you start up, start with a quick check.
