SetRandomColor

SetRandomColor

Output Event - Sets the chosen brick a random color from the set you have on.

Description
A new Output Event that sets the chosen brick to a random paint can color.

Author - Gamefandan
Helpers - None, unless you count the people who taught me to script.

This Event can be very useful for mostly recreational activities, like a dance floor, or a paint wall.

I also have an idea for SetRandomFxColor but this most likely isn\'t needed.

Download
Event_SetRandomColor.zip.zip

Installation
Put Event_SetRandomColor.zip into the Add-Ons folder in your Blockland folder.

Reminds me that I need to make an awesome place with a disco.  Do the setRandomFXColor.  I would love that.

Code: [Select]

%c.CPBrick=%this;
Won't this set the clients checkpoint to the brick?

Code: [Select]

getrandom(0,36)
You can have up to 64 colours on a colourset, so this doesn't exactly work right.

Shut it. ;O

Sorry 'bout that, I had a feeling someone would post about that 36 :P

As for the %c.CPBrick, Check Events was the only event mod I had that changes a brick somewhat. :(

Edit: Ha Ha! I put .zip in the file name. :P No wonder it wasn't working right for me.

Edit Edit: RTB won't let me fix the extra .zip :( When you download, please remove it :P

cool i have a build for my house that has a tv and could use this

[Gamefandan]

I finished making SetRandomFXColor. But I'm not going to release it until I finish ifColor, and I heard a rumor that ifColor has already been made, so don't expect anything right now.

Will it keep changing the color?

[Gamefandan]

Will it keep changing the color?

No, but this can be easily done through events.

OnActivate > Self > FireRelay
OnRelay > Self > FireRelay
OnRelay > Self > SetRandomColor


Update:

Also, I couldn't find ifbrickcolor anywhere, so I will assume that it hasn't been made, if anyone would like to prove me otherwise, do so now, while I figure out how to pop up the colorset Gui. :P

You should pick a random colour out of the available ones (check what the highest value is instead of 64 or you could get invalid invisible/glitched bricks) and add a selector for whether it should select transparent colours.

Good idea, and I realized someone might comment on the glitch color,
(Pink and transparent) I did some research and the colors aren't given number values the way I thought they would be, in fact the first color of a colorset isn't set to 1 it is in fact set to 0, (Well it was news to me.) so this means a colorset with 64 colors has an extra placeholder color set to 64, meaning that the colorset technically has 65 colors.

Fun huh?

Thank heavens! I can finally make a duck that changes color according to my mood :D
(made with bricks, calm down)
Thank you.

0 - 63 only as that can be transmitted in 6 bits. 0 - 64 wouldn't make sense as that'd require an extra bit which could be used for 0 - 127. Any unused colours in the 0-63 set will be set to some obscure pink colour that has zero alpha.
