For some reason when using color3.new it is multiplying?

01local red = game.Workspace.Red
02local light = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Sector 1 Light")
03 
04red.Changed:Connect(function()
05    if red.Value == true then
06        light.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Crimson")
07        light.SurfaceLight.Color = Color3.new(255, 37, 40)
08        wait(1)
09    else
10        light.brickColor = BrickColor.new("Institutional white")
11        light.SurfaceLight.Color = Color3.new(255, 255, 255)
12    end
13end)

So whenever I try to set the color, instead of it setting it, it multiplies it by the previous color.. WHAT THE HECK??

It is happening on the first if statement, not the else. At least I don't think..

Please help.

Color3.new accepts a range from 0 to 1 Example:

`1`	`Color3.new(1,0,0)` `--Red`

What you want to use is Color3.fromRGB

This accepts a range from 0 to 255

`1`	`Color3.fromRGB(255,0,0)` `--Red`
