Hype Train Begin
Runs on: Shared — pure logic, runs on the Streamerly backend or inside a chatbox overlay.
The Hype Train Begin trigger fires the moment a hype train kicks off in your channel. Twitch starts a hype train when your community rapidly chains together subscriptions, cheers, and similar contributions. This trigger gives you the Goal — the total points needed to reach Level 1 — so you can communicate the target to your audience or set up a countdown.
Use this trigger to announce the hype train in chat, activate a special hype train overlay, or play a sound effect that gets the energy going. Pair it with the Hype Train Level Up and Hype Train End triggers for a complete hype train experience.
Outputs

Example
When a hype train begins, fire a chat message such as "A hype train has started! We need [Goal] points to hit Level 1 — let's go!" Connect the Goal output to a String Op node to insert the actual number into the message.
