How do I compare effect param?

Is there a way to get the value of a sprite object's effect param (Tint RGB values, for example) to compare it for what ever needs?

I want to check if R of the RGB is less than a global R i want to add 1 per tick or some such functionallity.

Thanks

You can set the effect param 0 to your instance variable.

Then you can compare that instance variable for what you need.
