changing colors

[delsol456]

I can't figure out how to make a button that, when clicked, changes the color of another actor. Everytime that I try it changes the color of the button. Someone please help.

wats your code?

[delsol456]

paintcolor;r=220; g=0; b=0;

i've tried a couple of things but with the same result.

btw this is in script editor for mouse button down on the button that is supposed to change the color of the paint

actorname.r=220;

thank you

[delsol456]

i had assumed that r=220 would make red, but i was wrong. it turned out cyan. how do i make red.

Red is,

Code: Select all

g = 1;
b = 1;


Blue is

Code: Select all

g = 1;
r = 1;


Green is

Code: Select all

b = 1;
r = 1;


There are many more colors that can be scripted, even random ones.

Just put

Code: Select all

b = rand(your value);
g = rand(your value);
r = rand(your value);

ok so where do you type your actorname,r=220
and do you have to do anything before it??

[pixelpoop]

you can put it in any event where you want the color change to happen. but it should look like this:
actorname.r=220;

not this:
actorname,r=220

but where do i type actorname.r=220

[florafinn@yahoo.com]

oh and what event
Sorry I am new to this.

[pixelpoop]

It depends on what you are trying to do.

If you are new to GE you should go through all the Help Menu tutorials and try and recreate what they show you how to do.

For your situation, it would be an event on the "button" actor, a mouse-button-down event.
