Changing appearence of core dynamically (not images managed by script)

[Molay]

Hello!

I've been wondering if it is possible to change the core appearance itself, without adding images you manipulate?
As in, can I modify the scale, the color, the image etc of the core itself?

I thought about superimposing an image on a very small core as a workaround.
Am I just missing something? :)

Thanks!

Select the core you want to edit and look at the dock. There are a few setting that change the appearance of the core.

Yes, that's in the map editor, right?

I meant to change the main image of the core within the script, without making use of custom images. Like, changing it's color or scale if something triggers it.

I tried SetImageColor(self self 0 255 0 255) to get a green emitter, but it's doesn't work with placing the UID as second argument. What would I need to place there so it targets the appearance of the core?

I found it!

One got to use "main" as the second parameter.

Would be nice to have that in the wiki.

Am I allowed to modify the appropriate entries of the crplreference page to clarify that, or do we have dedicated personnel for the wiki? :)

You can do that if you are registered and feel that it is useful information.

Okay :)
Well it left me seeking, wondering and opening a thread for it. So I edited it. Makes it more convenient for others in the future :)
