Put a colour picker in your game easily

3. capable of 3,796,416* Colours

It looks like this:

Feel free to use this, but please give credit

I think you're supposed to provide source straight away, not "coming soon"...

err... quickpad?

FYI: is that my picker in your game?

That's exactly the type of thing I planned it to be used for.

(It actually works?... Not bad for 30 mins coding.)

small request: Could you give credit PLZ.

sometimes the color flashes to the original color, I think it can be fixed by making the color pointer invisible. plus I have a theory about your script which might improve its flexibility

This has been annoying me for a while, so I'll say it now - the plural of "pop-up" is "pop-ups". There should be no apostrophe.

Go on... (and which pointer (there are 3 counting the mouse)

Spelling isn't my strong point (it was typed while tired)
fixed where possible

1. you could use this Posted Image instead of the current color picker.

2. I mean the pointer that selects the main color

1. mine has 3,796,416 possible colours. Yours has 127 (PM me if you really care how I worked these out.) Math FTW (Come on this is a programming forum after all)
2. The selector is a ring so it being read as the colour shouldn't be a problem. When exactly does the reset happen; I never came across this in testing.

1. sorry I worded it wrong, I mean't you can add this as an option.
2.I think it just happens when dragging it sometimes

1. so 2 tabs like in the MS office 2003 one
2. err... i'll look into it (does it reset back to red 255 or does the colour go gray-ey)

1.no I mean something like this:
sc_colour(type)
type would be either 1(your standard one) or 2 (the hex color diagram).
2.I think it is because it picks up the color of the selector instead of the one it should, the color goes grey(maybe white)

oh and did you like nyan sonic???

1. I'll give that a try
2. You gotta move the mouse really* fast for that, and once you stop the mouse it sorts it's self out, so it's not really a problem.

2. it does not have to be very fast, how about the pointer moves faster( tip:
draw_sprite(sp_colour,3,mouse_x,mouse_y)
)???
