A few options to consider for the future from reviewing the original film (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvEXkd3O2ow starting at 00:25-)

  1. Not all rain columns have cursors
  2. Not all rain columns always fall vertically- some columns stick and fade in/out
  3. Some rain columns have cursors that dont fall the entire lenght of the column, they blink in and out on the way down the screen
  4. Some rain columns have cursors that jump to adjacent columns laterally rapidly creating a random wiggle effect

Some of these options are seen at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xbi3U6G7iA

Great job on this!

Thank you for your kind words and feedback! Hey, that second video is a nice rendition.

I may loop back around to improving the operator version version in the future, at which point I'll factor in your observations. 😊

All I want is for the square 'ripple' codeburst effect to not be on by default. Or for it to be disabled using 'effect=plain'
Please :D

Otherwise this is the best recreation of the look of the intro code from the first film I've seen and I've been investigating Matrix screensavers for 20 years! Well done! I'm comparing it to stills from the film and it's SUPER close 👏👏👏

Other codes are solid as well. I've always wanted the actual screensaver used in the film, but this is the next best thing!
