ColorfulPieces

• You can color any building piece that can be built using the Hammer using RGB or HTML color codes.
• Coloring is very simple at the moment and will color all materials/textures on the object (to be refined later).
• Those without the mod installed will still see the default vanilla materials/textures.

Instructions

Setting target color

• In-game, press F1 to bring up the ConfigurationManager and navigate to the ColorfulPieces section.
• Change the target color using the RGB sliders or using an HTML color code.
• Change the target emission color factor using the slider (this affects how bright the target color will be).

Changing piece colors

• Hover over any building piece that you are the owner of and a prompt will appear.
• Hit LeftShift + R to change the building piece color to the target color and emission factor.
• Hit LeftAlt + R to clear any existing colors from the building piece.
• Hit LeftCtrl + R to copy the existing color from a piece.

• This prompt can be hidden by disabling the showChangeRemoveColorPrompt setting.
• Prompt font-size can be configured with the colorPromptFontSize setting.

Changing/clearing pieces in a radius

These two commands still call the same action as the hotkey and so will obey all ward permissions.

• /clearcolor <radius> (in chatbox)
• clearcolor <radius> (in console)
• Clears any colors from all pieces in the specified radius from the player.

• /changecolor <radius> (in chatbox)
• changecolor <radius> (in console)
• Changes the color of all pieces in the radius from the player to the currently set target color.
