How do I make the trunk open in xLights?

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
So I have been working on a custom light show in xLights for my 22 M3P and was wondering how do I program the trunk to open. I see the liftgate section in the sequence but whenever I set it to on, it still does not open when I run the show on my car.

Does anyone know how to work that or if I am missing something?

Thank You!
 
Have to use a percentage as the liftgate needs a Closure Command. The settings of 0,25,50,75,100% are for Idle, open, dance, close, stop. I used this to get the FWD on the X to dance. The editor was problematic and I had a hard time getting this to work, but it did eventually. This is in the xlights editor instructions for Tesla show.

Thank you! This was the final clue in my being able to get my X to work properly.

After you add the effect to the sequence, go to the top left where you will see brightness as a selector bar. Switch this to the setting that FirstInTown advises above. This is the link for the instructions GitHub - teslamotors/light-show: Tesla Light Show. (Providing extra guidance in case anyone else's brain is a slow as mine at the end of the workday)
