Extracting values from Datalinq text string to change displayed team colors

  • 1.  Extracting values from Datalinq text string to change displayed team colors

    Posted 08-12-2025 10:35

    Currently we are attempting to pull game data for team colors. Through Datalinq, these values are displayed as "Color [A=255, R=178, G=145, B=77]." Normally we change color data through Visual Logic by manually inputting the 3 color codes from Text objects into an IntColor function to determine the swatch, but we are attempting to automate this process, which would require extracting the numerical data from the Datalinq info. Alternatively, if there was a scripting process that could function as  "team name = r=x, g=x, b=x" that could also work, but I would assume would require setting these values for all applicable teams. Any suggestions would be helpful.
