The Laziest way to get color vectors. ;)

//Aki-Tools
//"ColorVec on ColorChange" 01/27/2004

//This script is useful if you are trying to figure out a color vector. When you change the color of the object this script is on, the object will whisper the new color vector.

init()
{
llSetColor(<1,1,1>, ALL_SIDES);
}

colorize()
{
integer s;
vector color = llGetColor(1);
llWhisper(0, "Current Color Vector: [ "+(string)color+" ]";
}

default
{
state_entry()
{
init();
}

on_rez(integer a)
{
init();
}

touch_start(integer total_number)
{
colorize();
}

changed(integer change)
{
if (change & CHANGED_COLOR)
{
colorize();
}
}
}

Aki, I was intrigued by this script as I have a pair of glasses that can change the lenses to any color with a typed command. When I want those inbetween colors I'd love to be able to get the vector for it right away so your script was just what I was looking for. However, I can only get it to whisper a vector of all zeros no matter what color I change my cube to. What am I doing wrong?

I tried the code on a sphere and I only got zeroes as well.
It turns out the face number has to change from 1 to 0, the line:



has to become

vector color = llGetColor(0);

cool....thanks!

I've got a script in my inventory called "Report Colors" that will report all the textures and colors on an object and then delete iteself. I just drag it onto the object and it spits out the info and removes itself from the object. Quite handy.

so....uh...ya gonna post it?

Thank you Aki for posting this..it has helped me sooooo much
