[SKG]Simonokles - Check my workshop page, there's a version 2 of this mod that can do that :)

It would be super nice if it would also change the skins of the blocks.:missing:
Cpt Pillowy Giant 4 Apr, 2020 @ 10:34am 
Is it a way to do the same with Skins?
Kara Vaki 4 Mar, 2020 @ 8:25pm 
nvm i'm a dumbass XD
Kara Vaki 4 Mar, 2020 @ 7:00pm 
this only recolors the targeter ;w;
Bazil T Yat 4 Mar, 2020 @ 3:13am 
Can you make a version that'll recolour only one type of block? I accidentally recoloured my outer hull the same hue as my interior blocks and didn't notice until all the backups had been over-written.

@bcjbna just follow the directions on this page
SalazarWindriver 1 Mar, 2020 @ 6:39am 
but I was able to repaint with skin only, and I needed to change the others colors skin as well so not a big problem
SalazarWindriver 1 Mar, 2020 @ 6:36am 
I was just able to use this with only 1 little problem, it didn't take the skin and replace that as well.

Please update your Great Mod.
Caldin 22 Feb, 2020 @ 7:01pm 
Can you update this mod to be used in 2020. I cannot get it to work and idk if im the problem or the mod is so if i am can you update the vid

Would it be possible to add specific-blocks?

Accidentally repainting over an entire station and not being able to color specific blocks like conveyor's and whatnot are my problem rather than color changing.

This would be a really good feature if possible.
Alterae 29 Nov, 2019 @ 10:57am 
can this replace skins?
Cpt Pillowy Giant 18 Nov, 2019 @ 5:40am 
Not sure if its just my game but it don't work for me. Anyone else having problems?
Targeter has the wrong colour to what I give it.
Meridius_IX / Lucas  [author] 3 Nov, 2019 @ 5:21pm 
That'd be my guess - At some point I do plan to add a little more flexibility to it
Dying Dark Star 3 Nov, 2019 @ 5:18pm 
one color might be for example 100.1 in value and the color would be 100.0 in value visually there's no difference but in the value there is. So that might be the problem why not all of the colos change the value might be off by a .1
Dr. Antonio 26 Oct, 2019 @ 4:33pm 
Even the block that the targeter color came from stayed the same.
Dr. Antonio 26 Oct, 2019 @ 4:33pm 
I have had a similar problem, but with a workshop ship.
ThijmenDF 5 Oct, 2019 @ 9:41am 
I actually picked the color (shift+P) from a block it didn't replace. One would assume it would've replaced that block at least.
Meridius_IX / Lucas  [author] 4 Oct, 2019 @ 9:13am 
That's usually a case of the block colors not being a perfect match - does happen on occasion
ThijmenDF 4 Oct, 2019 @ 8:16am 
Doesn't seem to work properly.
Bought a ship from a trading station, attempted to repaint the blue to something else. Yet only a few blocks got recolored. See: https://imgur.com/a/1ofqJea
Targeter on the left, replacer on the right.

Absolute lifesaver, tyvm
Railgunner2160 6 Jun, 2019 @ 7:37pm 
Dang, time to do it the old fashioned way then.
Meridius_IX / Lucas  [author] 6 Jun, 2019 @ 3:38pm 
As far as I know, the ModAPI can't touch skins yet. Unsure if it will ever be a thing since I'd imagine they don't want people to try using Mods/Script to bypass anything and get access to skins they don't have.
Railgunner2160 6 Jun, 2019 @ 3:05pm 
Any plans to update it for the new Armor Skins system? would really like to be able to swap skins as well as colors now that we are able to...
Belfontan 17 May, 2019 @ 4:58pm 
Works fine, but doesn't replace all blocks.
Maybe it has something to do the way SE handles the color managment, because I sometimes recognized a slightly change in the colours during building.
You can see it by taking a look at the arrmor edges. sometimes edges are present were they should not be present, which leads me to the conclusion, that SE has slightly differrent color values then those I chose in the palette menu.
And THIS is prrobably the reason why this mod cannot recognize ALL of the blocks, because the color is slightly a little tiny bit different.


Maybe a precision problem in the programming of SE?
alchemy2 28 Mar, 2019 @ 11:36am 
does this mod still work
MrEvan312 2 Jan, 2019 @ 3:15pm 
For some reason I can only get it to replace about half of the blocks, but having to manually repaint half of the ship is a LOT better than doing the whole thing. It also repainted harder sections like slope corners for me, thank god for that.
RedSerpent 13 Dec, 2018 @ 3:22pm 
you could use "colo(u)r
RedSerpent 11 Dec, 2018 @ 8:54am 
good mod got it working in the end
Meridius_IX / Lucas  [author] 11 Dec, 2018 @ 8:41am 
As a Canadian, I'm entirely aware - Just had a feeling it would be less grief in the comments if I went with the 'wrong' spelling ;)
RedSerpent 11 Dec, 2018 @ 8:35am 
it's colour
Oneill_SFA 25 Oct, 2018 @ 4:51pm 
This is a great concept, but it only replaced the colors on a fraction of the blocks on the ship. This is on a DS, but all the options are there and it did change some blocks, just not all
big_blue_4101 19 Sep, 2018 @ 9:28pm 
the mod is not showing up in my mod list ingame.
Someguy Somewhere 8 Sep, 2018 @ 9:48am 
Huh....wonder if the same trick can be used to swap other things.

I'd love to have something like this that can convert all armor blocks from Light to Heavy, or vice versa
Dr.Dangerous 25 Aug, 2018 @ 4:57pm 
Awesome idea! I hope the devs take notice and include the functionality in futer versions. Very usefull.
Malkavian407[RU] 18 Aug, 2018 @ 5:00am 
Круто!!!
Covanant Jackal 15 Aug, 2018 @ 7:51pm 
many thanks. i can now see why youd want to change the colors of that ship in particular XD
Meridius_IX / Lucas  [author] 15 Aug, 2018 @ 7:21pm 
Covanant Jackal 15 Aug, 2018 @ 7:15pm 
PS: whats the ship used in the screenshot?
Covanant Jackal 15 Aug, 2018 @ 7:14pm 
just thinking about it, now you can make a ship/vehicle with multiple, interchangable camoflauge schemes. set up multiple targeters and replacers, color them accordingly, set them on a hotkey, and you can switch your camo type on the go. Amazing.
Dying Dark Star 11 Aug, 2018 @ 6:51pm 
@dga8705 ya you can you'll need 2 Color Replacers and 1 timer at min
Meridius_IX / Lucas  [author] 11 Aug, 2018 @ 10:40am 
It's possible with the config available, I've just never tried it :P
dga8705 11 Aug, 2018 @ 9:51am 
Could you set these up with a timer to make a ship that constantly changes colors? I'm sure it would be horrible to the sim speed and such, but would look hilarious and amazing
Dying Dark Star 10 Aug, 2018 @ 3:32pm 
iv been wanting some thing like this for a long ass time tbh this should be in the game
asteria 3 Aug, 2018 @ 11:31pm 
This might be the most useful mod I will ever use! (Will because I’m on holiday atm, but am watching SE!). Thanks a lot mate!
