How do I return the color of a part?

Asked Oct 23, 2018319 views1 answers

Here is a portion of my script:

			for i,v in pairs(hit.Parent:GetChildren()) do
				if v.ClassName == "Part" then
					local bc = Instance.new("StringValue")
					bc.Parent = v
					bc.Name = v.Name
					bc.Value = v.BrickColor
				end
			end

It says that it expected a string, got brickcolor. How do I get the string value of a brickcolor?

Gotta use BrickColor.Name

for i,v in pairs(hit.Parent:GetChildren()) do
	if v.ClassName == "Part" then
		local bc = Instance.new("StringValue")
		bc.Parent = v
		bc.Name = v.Name
		bc.Value = v.BrickColor.Name -- Will give the name of the brickcolor in a string
	end
end
