Lua property: color picker

[AggrorJorn]

The documentation states that it is possible to have a color picker but I haven't been able to get it working.

 

Tried the following.

Script.a = "" --color
Script.b = Vec4(0,0,0,0) --color
Script.c = Vec3(0,0,0) --color

 

The particle emitter has a color picker in it so it must be possible.

have tried it as well and i can't get it to work too.

[AggrorJorn]

Thanks for confirming.

 

@Josh, can you move this to the bug section?

[shadmar]

I can't get this to work either. Nor Vec3() or Vec4()

 

@Aggror did you ever solve this?

If i understood what your asking.heres how you create a color picker

--Color
Script.Cool = nil --Color
--Vec3
Script.Vec3Test = nil --Vec3

[shadmar]

Yes that works and your initial color will be 0,0,0,0 in the editor.... but...

 

 

If you do :

--Color
Script.Cool = Vec4(1,1,1,1)--Color
--Vec3
Script.Vec3Test = Vec3(1,0,0)--Vec3

 

Throws:

...: Attempt to call a non-callable object

 

Or if you try getting the value from your first example

 

SetColor(Vec4(Cool)) -- will result in same error

This worked for me, but I could never get the actual default value to function.

 

--The Lua Script
Script.MyColor = Vec3()--Color "My Color"

 

// Retrieving the value in C++
Vec4 myColor = (Vec4)entity.getObjectA("MyColor");

[shadmar]

Got it... this works :

   Script.MyColor = Vec3(1,1,1)--Color "My Color"
..
   r,g,b=self.MyColor.x,self.MyColor.y,self.MyColor.z
   entity:SetColor(r/255,g/255,b/255)
