Changing the color of the LED lights

[Cmdr Wispa]

Okay, it's not clear to me on how to change the color. I've tried clicking around. I've tried wiring as well.

Hi Deen Wispa,

You're gonna want to bring up the LED's advanced device settings. Point at it with your wiring tool and hit n.

[Cmdr Wispa]

Oh, I see the problem. I was using pressure plates instead of the switch tool. My knowledge of this is still kinda rusty. Thanks

It would be nice to be able to change the color programmatically, via a send link. It would also be nice to be able to read color (and on/off) of the LEDs.

Agreed b1uecat! To be able to send a color code to an LED from a logic block or other machine would be great. I presently have 3 doors that each trigger a red LED when they are opened from the outside, but I would love for them to be lit green when the door is closed or opened from the inside and only turn red when opened from the outside. I use this as an example, as I'm sure people would LOVE to create full color displays in CV, but my present ambitions are fairly reserved.

Is there any way that I have missed where you can unload the numbers for the colours easily, or do you have to write them in every single cube? It's a bit time consuming when doing a large thing - even though there's lot of different colours, some blocks will usually have the same.

I mean, just like copy and paste, for example?

As of right now, you have to manually enter each LED's color. I do hope that we can get some sort of copy and paste for that information in the future and also be able to change the colors of a single LED through other logic blocks.

if you want Green then you

use R-G-B, = Red- Green- Blue

For each:
0 (zero % for this colour) equals no light of this colour

In RGB then , if you want green,,

R=0 (red is 0%)
G=255 ( Green is 100% )
B=0( Blue is 0% )


For any of these, if you want to mix, then you can see that making blue is 0 0 255 and red is 255 0 0, then you can mix any colour you like (purple?) by using 240, 0 255

Any questions?

I found it fun to work with gradients, so another thing to that would be kind of awesome was if I could choose a large quantity of blocks, set the numbers, then choose maybe a row of those again and be able to change just one of the numbers for, lets say 15 blocks, and then move on to the next 15.

а что если фазерами подменять лед блоки на одном и том же месте и чтобы у этих лед блоков уже были разные настройки цвета?) охх как я придумал читая ваше нытье..)

Per DM, the poster is trying to ask a related question on this thread and google translate is messing up.

Hello, I wanted to say this: you can replace one LED block with another LED block with different settings using phasers. Change them in turn with one click of a button or a sensor. Thus, it is possible to put 2 LED blocks with different colors on 1 cell. Is not it?

P.S.
Excuse me for my English, it is not even mine, but google translator.))

That's a really good question.

Phasers don't work on LEDs. That's actually good. Phasers have problems. You want to be very, very careful with phasers. Putting 2 blocks in the same place is never a good idea. Your LEDs will disappear forever.

An LED that can change between 2 (or more) colors is a popular suggestion. I have seen this suggestion several times.
