[Open Assets] Sendcolor: Players pick their own skincolors! (v7) 7

[SSNFang]

sorry, uh, i'm stupid. what do i put in the sendcolor.txt?

 

[SpectralFlake]

it says invalid value for field ramp... what do i do?

Make sure there are exactly 16 colour values, (a number from 0 to 255 if you forgot) separated by a comma.

sorry, uh, i'm stupid. what do i put in the sendcolor.txt?

Try this and go from there:

NAME = Blue RAMP = 146,147,148,149,150,151,152,153,154,155,156,157,158,159,253,254 INVCOLOR = 32 INVSHADE = 5 CHATCOLOR = 16384 ACCESSIBLE = TRUE
This code makes a copy of the default "Blue" colour in vanilla SRB2. However if you want you can also use Lua code, as shown here:

name = "Blue",
ramp = {146,147,148,149,150,151,152,153,154,155,156,157,158,159,253,254},
invcolor = SKINCOLOR_ORANGE,
invshade = 5,
chatcolor = V_BLUEMAP,
accessible = true

And crash on demand still wasn't fixed... And the mod is featured...
Host please don't host with this until this is fixed(and it will probably not be fixed before long)

Is there a way to send multiple colors?

Does the freeze you mentioned in the description happen on the server and/or other clients, or just on the client where the command was entered? If it happens for anyone else, I'd say that's a serious problem as it could be used for griefing and/or DoS.

sorry about the 2 years late reply, i didn't get a notification, it crashes the server, i have figured out that it has to do with if the color metadata doesn't have a uploader it crashes i did create a modification of the addon that addresses this tho it does have console log messages from me debugging the issue

iirc it should be located in
```
$(SRB2DIR)/luafiles/common/sendcolor.txt
```
but the discription should tell you

Oh, if only there was a mod like this for custom characters so I could play on someone’s server with a character they didn’t download.

 

[bitten2up]

god damn that would be a nightmare to develop
