  • Hey, I'm adjusting the HSL (hue parameter) of a sprite randomly (diamond), and when they are destroyed and spawn particles I want the particles to be the same HUE as the original sprite.... How can I do it?

    I thought I could do something like in the value use: DIAMOND.AdjustHSL and its not available, them tried with DIAMOND.ColorValue but it doesnt change the color of the particle or it becomes completely black!

    Please help? Project attached!

  • I haven't downloaded your project, but from the screen you posted, I noticed an error.

    In your event you are destroying the DIAMOND object, and then trying to access one of its variables.

    Reverse the two events, and destroy the diamond after retrieving its values.

  • Hi, yes, I noticed that and reversed but made no difference

    I need to save somehow the HSL of the sprite and then catch that value into the particle effect parameter... how is this done? Json?

  • You will need to make a variable that can store your Choose value and call it on destruction.

    I made a short tutorial video:

    Let me know if you have any issues

    You can create a variable inside the DIAMOND object (we can for example call the variable "hsl"). Upon creation of the DIAMANTE object you can assign the random value you want to the variable. At the time of particle generation, you can safely get the HSL value to copy the clicked diamond with DIAMOND.hsl.
