Text Image color not changing?

[brokk]

I have a NPC that is created that joins a class. The script is suppose to draw a number but for some reason it comes out a light blue no matter what I set the color values to.

PHP Code:

function onCreated()
{
 showText(1, this.x, this.y-3, $pref::graal::defaultfontname, "c", "" @(this.setnuber));
 changeImgColors(1, 10, 10, 10, 10); //<-- I think the issue is here
   with (findImg(1)) {
    textshadow = true;
    shadowoffset = "0 0";
    shadowcolors = "1 1 1";
    changeImgZoom(1, 3);
 }
}

I'm amazed it's actually light blue and not white. You have 10 for red, green, blue and alpha. First off, all of the four values range between 0 and 1. And to get something that's not white/gray, you probably want to choose different values.

I redid the script. But the zoom and font dont seem to be changing?

PHP Code:

function onCreated(){ 
 showText(1, this.x, this.y-3, $pref::graal::defaultfontname, "c", "" @(this.setnumber));
 changeImgColors(1, 1, 1, 1, 1);
  with (findImg(1)) {
    textshadow = true;
    shadowoffset = "-2 2";
    shadowcolors = "0 0 0";
    font = "showg";
    style = "b";
    layer = 12;
    zoom = 2;
 }
}

You setted the font 2 times. Once in the showText() part ($pref::graal::defaultfontname) and once in the with(findimg(1)) part (font = "showg"). You have to choose which you want to use.

Also a small tip if you want to use RGB values for you colors: you can do divide the RGB value with 255 which will always make it <= 1. As example:

PHP Code:

changeImgColors(1, 255/255, 216/255, 0/255, 255/255);
changeImgColors(index, red, green, blue, alpha); 


Which would make it yellow

OOOOH thank you. I got it now.

But I am still running into one issue. the layer=# is NOT working for some reason :[

You can do either

PHP Code:

changeImgVis(index, layer);
changeImgVis(1, 3); 


PHP Code:

findImg(index).layer = layer;
findImg(1).layer = 3;
//or
with (findImg(1)) {
  layer = 3;
}

Use an image index >200 in this case.
