"Set color" action takes one frame on new objects?

Hello,

When I use these actions in this order in the same event (called only once with a condition that is not a trigger):

• System::Create object MySprite
• MySprite::Set color rgbEx255(255, 0, 0)

I can see the sprite in white for one frame before it is drawn in red.

Is it a normal behavior? Can I do something in order to see the sprite with the right color immediately?

Thanks!

Are you using 'set color' or 'set effect parameter'? I found I had better luck getting this to work by changing the parameter value.

You could also move the 'set color' action to an 'on created' event for the sprite.

Thanks for the info, will try that!
