I am having a problem that should be super simple, I am sure I am missing something!

Is there an easy way to have a led move in a circle around a WS2812 ring? I wanted it to look something like half of the ring was dark and a ‘streak’ was making a continuous circle around the ring, with a fading tail.

Is this going to be hard to pull off?

Easiest way is to have a counter and use the modulo or “%” operator and combine that with a fade.

Cheat code included:
