How to change color of Fog?

Asked by

I have this fog changing coloring script, but for some reason it won't work.

while wait() do
if game.Lighting.TimeOfDay == "06:00:00" then
    script.Parent.FogColor = Color3.new(158,186,250)
else if game.Lighting.TimeOfDay == "19:00:00" then
    script.Parent.FogColor = Color3.new(57,57,57)
        end
    end
end

I assume that my day/night script is interfering with this script, but my lamp script I made works perfectly fine unlike this one.

-- Turning On and off script

        Light = script.Parent.PointLight
while wait() do
if game.Lighting.TimeOfDay == "19:00:00" then
    Light.Enabled = true
    script.Parent.Material = "Neon"
else if game.Lighting.TimeOfDay == "06:00:00" then
    Light.Enabled = false
    script.Parent.Material = "DiamondPlate"

    end 
end
end

Any clue on how to get this Fog color change to work?

Here's the day/night script if needed:

l = game:service("Lighting") 
while true do 
l:SetMinutesAfterMidnight(l:GetMinutesAfterMidnight()+0.1)
wait(.1)
end

Put a print statement after the if statements in the first script and see if it prints, indicating it got past the if statements.. dragonkeeper467 453 — 8y

It didn't go through at all. The script isn't disabled either. RadioactiveP0P 44 — 8y

In Color3.new(), the values have to be divided by 255 to work, as they have to be in between 0 and 1. You could also work Color3.fromRGB(), if you prefer. You also have an extra end in the first script.

while wait() do
    if game.Lighting.TimeOfDay == "06:00:00" then
        script.Parent.FogColor = Color3.new(158/255, 186/255, 250/255)
    else if game.Lighting.TimeOfDay == "19:00:00" then
        script.Parent.FogColor = Color3.new(57/255, 57/255, 57/255)
    end
end

Also, in the second one, instead of using strings for materials, you should use Enums. It will still work with the strings, but Enums are better to use.

You can simplify line 5 to just Color3.new(57/255) User#5423 17 — 8y
