Color not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#21

Using Color.fromHex() does work just replace the value in colorchosen with Color3.fromhex(your hex code here)

#22

i put the code in sever script right?

for i, Button in pairs(colorButtons:GetChildren()) do
     if Button:IsA("TextButton") then
          Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
               colorchosen = Button.Value.Value
          end)
     end
end

since you havent named each value to be “ButtonColor”, use this version instead

oh thank you, i didnt see that

#26

here, a video


sorry for bad quality

#27

that happened with the code i altered for you?

#28

yes, even before the altered code, still the same

#29

could you post your entire code so far? im not sure how it looks right now

#30

sure,



local partsFolder = workspace:WaitForChild("Parts")
local colorButtons = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.Frame
local colorchosen = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
	
local function changePartColor(part)
	print("Changing color of part:", part.Name, "to color:", colorchosen)
	part.Color = Color3.new(colorchosen)
	print("New color of part:", part.Name, "is:", part.Color)
end

 for _, part in ipairs(partsFolder:GetChildren()) do
	if part:IsA("BasePart") then
		local clickDetector = Instance.new("ClickDetector")
		clickDetector.Parent = part
		

		clickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
			changePartColor(part)
		end)
	end
end

for i, Button in pairs(colorButtons:GetChildren()) do
	if Button:IsA("TextButton") then
		Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
			colorchosen = Button.Value.Value
		end)
	end
end

i never thought my first game would be so challenging

#31

Correct me if I’m wrong, but can’t you just use the background color of the button?

i think i might know what happened

local colorButtons = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.Frame

here you need to reference the PlayerGui not the StarterGui. Is this game single player? if so its more straight forward to do and you can use:

local Player = game.Players.ChildAdded:Wait()
local partsFolder = workspace:WaitForChild("Parts")
local colorButtons = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.Frame
local colorchosen = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
	
local function changePartColor(part)
	print("Changing color of part:", part.Name, "to color:", colorchosen)
	part.Color = Color3.new(colorchosen)
	print("New color of part:", part.Name, "is:", part.Color)
end

 for _, part in ipairs(partsFolder:GetChildren()) do
	if part:IsA("BasePart") then
		local clickDetector = Instance.new("ClickDetector")
		clickDetector.Parent = part
		

		clickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
			changePartColor(part)
		end)
	end
end

for i, Button in pairs(colorButtons:GetChildren()) do
	if Button:IsA("TextButton") then
		Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
			colorchosen = Button.Value.Value
		end)
	end
end

its not single player
the 30 minimum thing is bad

#34 
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)

	local partsFolder = workspace:WaitForChild("Parts")
	local colorButtons = Player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame
	local colorchosen = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)



	local function changePartColor(part)
		print("Changing color of part:", part.Name, "to color:", colorchosen)
		part.Color = Color3.new(colorchosen)
		print("New color of part:", part.Name, "is:", part.Color)
	end

	for _, part in ipairs(partsFolder:GetChildren()) do
		if part:IsA("BasePart") then
			local clickDetector = Instance.new("ClickDetector")
			clickDetector.Parent = part


			clickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
				changePartColor(part)
			
			end)
		end
	end

	for i, Button in pairs(colorButtons:GetChildren()) do
		if Button:IsA("TextButton") then
			Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
				colorchosen = Button.Value.Value
			end)
		end
		
	end		

end)
