color change with one key stroke?
i want to know if you can set up a insta chat that will change my cycle/trail color via console command
Re: color change with one key stroke?
Sort of. You would use the chat command "/console" followed by the color information you want. But you can only do one line/color at a time. So, you would need 3 instant chats to do it.
There is another way. You can put the colors in a .cfg file and place it in your Armagetron directory. For instance, a file named bikecolor.cfg with color_r_1 16, color_g_1 4 ... You get the picture. Then you can bind all that information to one instant chat that would read: /console include bikecolor.cfg.
This same principal can be extended to zone settings or whatever custom information you want to include in-game. You can even make a instant chat that includes a file with an entire set of new instant chats, making your ability to annoy people infinite!
Got it?
