Color.color help

Changing pirates and neutral

from Sins Forums

Hey, 

 

I'm pretty new to sins modding, and I'm trying to figure out how to change neutral and pirate colors for my game. In the color.color file I can see how to change player colors 0 to 9, but I don't see anything about pirates or neutral planet militias. 

 

I see "playerColor:NPC ffbdbdbd", but that doesn't seem to be a valid color. Anyone able to help?

Yup, there are many different ways to represent 255 RGB colors, and in video games hexadecimal like #ffbdbdbd are very common since its the most concise. I'd suggest reading up a little on it if you're still confused after myfist's link.

You might find these useful...not saying there aren't better resources but once I found something that works I didn't bother to look for something else...

In some cases (maybe all cases?) you can put in a 6 characters for the color (instead of the 8 where the first two are "ff")...you can also always put 0...
