Re: [Swarm-Support] problem setting color for agents

[Paul E Johnson]

Hey, Rex

THe red, green, and blue numbers are supposed to be between 0 and 1.

Take a look at the Heatbugs colors.

I think you want something like


[colorMap setColor: 0  ToRed: (double) 1.0 Green: (double) 1.0 Blue: 0];
[colorMap setColor: 1  ToRed: (double) 200.0/255 Green: (double) 
140.0/255 Blue: 0   ];
[colorMap setColor: 2  ToRed: (double) 160.0/255 Green: (double) 
80.0/255  Blue: 0   ];
[colorMap setColor: 3  ToRed: (double) 160.0/255 Green: (double) 40/255 
 Blue: (double) 50.0/255  ];

etc

I'm  not surprised yours all look the same, since they are all so huge
