Hi.. I'm wanting to make an item that will cycle through different colors every couple seconds. I have seen it on lots of shards all the way back to TUS so it must be fairly easy to do. Anyone know what the code is to make it cycle through colors?

I know to put COLOR={XXXX 1 XXXX 1 XXXX 1 0 0 1}
X for the color numbers but how do I get it to automatically change/cycle through the different colors. Is it a timer ?? Would really appreciate some help with the code if you know what to do.
Thanks!

IF (<CONT.ISPLAYER>)
COLOR { BLA BLA }
TIMERF 1, F_COLOR
ENDIF

I need the code for 51a and that's not 51a coding..
How would you do this in 51a??

Sorry, I didn't notice.
I don't have idea on how to do it on sphere 51a.
Why are you using 51a? It's too old..

If you don't know how in 51a I understand thanks, but it is possible to do. I have been on shards all the way back to TUS48e and we had color changing items on the shards. It's not impossible just because 51a is older it's just a little bit different scripting. Any idea how to change it to 51a coding? Anyone else already have the code for this?? All I want is the code to make an item cycle through a set of colors when you wear it.
I really appreciate it!
Thanks

I'm not sure in 51a but in 55i names could be coloured by using name=@color <name>, so storing the real name and changing the first color value with a timer would do the trick.
