Why are you wrapping Color3 in extra brackets? Unnecessary. You’re not performing math, remove them. User#19524 175 — 6y

Color3 isn't like RGB, instead of ranging from 0-255 it ranges from 0-1.

There are 2 ways to fix this, the easier one being using Color3.fromRGB instead of Color3.new:

Color3.fromRGB(255,1,5)

or you can divide every number by 255, so it's always a number between 0 and 1:

Color3.new(255/255,1/255,5/255)
0
correct. User#19524 175 — 6y

Dividing every number by 255 is really inconvenient as well as inefficient, I’d just stick with Color3.fromRGB() . User#19524 175 — 6y

Try this, if you need a different color just change the white or red to whatever the colors name is.

local playing = false


    local function Error()
        if playing == false then
        playing = true
        local label = script.Parent
        label.BrickColor = BrickColor.White()
        wait(0.5)
        label.BrickColor = BrickColor.Red()
        wait(0.5)
        label.BrickColor = BrickColor.White()
        wait(0.5)
        label.BrickColor = BrickColor.Red()
        wait(0.5)
        label.BrickColor = BrickColor.White()()
        wait(0.5)
        label.BrickColor = BrickColor.Red()
        wait(0.5)
        label.BrickColor = BrickColor.White()
        playing = false
        end
    end

That would error, because TextLabel objects don’t have a BrickColor property. User#19524 175 — 6y
