Author Topic: Random color paint  (Read 3095 times)

Thanks. I'll pretend that meant something.

So like a Fillcan that paints all the bricks a random color?

Tell me if Im wrong

Yes, you are, sadly. It's just that every brick gets colored randomly.

Fine, I'll explain this, then someone will point out irrelevant flaws.

FX is effects. Special animations of the layer used for coloring. Things like rainbow and blink are special FX. They change the brick on a constant basis, working with the engine. A spraycan mode that simply sets every brick it paints a different, random, regular color is not FX. It's just setting random colors. If you've ever examined a large consistent area of Rainbowed bricks, you'd notice it's special layers moving over the bricks that makes it do that.

Again, I still support the general idea, but it shouldn't be under FX. If you need more explanation, I'll bash your head in with a rabbit.

I know what FX is.

I also know that "random" is not a color.

FX aren't colors either.

Instead of making a group for "random" or showing a color for "random", it would be best for it to go under FX as "random".

I don't think it really deserves it's own slot in there. Idiots who join the server will get confused and start big fusses over it.

Then to avoid confusion, this mod shouldn't be made.

Okay, fine. This mod isn't going to be made.

i don't think this is possible without actual scripting colorsets aren't anything more than the rgb values. if you were to try making a colorset with random color's you would need to make a colorset and to script something for this

nonono that isnt what this is

Just want to say: Human Reaper made this for me and PM'd it to me. I'll just leave the thread up for discussion.

I already know what he wants.

Since paintcan can only be set to one color at a time red, blue, green, ect. What he wants is the paintcan to randomly select colors per second. So say you want to paint a wall, it will paint it in colors like red, blue and green with out having to scroll.

Thats sorta how it works, I made it like 30minutes to a hour after he posted it. So it was fun to watch you guys talk about it.

Your method is too costly, and overcomplicated. I imagined this where whenever a brick was successfully painted, it would randomly switch your color to another. Possibly add a range of difference check so they don't come out too similar, or just for that one color.

I'd start making this myself to post here for you guys (I know Dr.Block already got one), but my Dad is making lots of loud obnoxious noises that frustrate my limited attention span.

^i know what you mean by loud obnoxious noises. ;-;

Also, I'm currently working on a paintball mod that will allow players to color bricks by shooting them, and a random option will be avaliable.

hasint that bean done?
