Why won't my BrickColor be random?
local Owner
local colors = {"Medium stone grey","Sea green","Really red"}
while true do
Owner = script.Parent.Parent.owner
if Owner.Value ~= nil then
local original = script.Parent.Party1
local copy = original:Clone()
copy.Parent = script.Parent.Parent.Parties
copy.Transparency = 0
copy.CanCollide = true
copy.Anchored = false
copy.Position = Vector3.new(129.5, 8.5, -16.25)
copy.BrickColor = BrickColor.new(colors[math.random(1, 3)])
wait(1)
end
wait()
end

do you want a whole spectrum of colors or just those three? DeceptiveCaster 3761 — 5y

you can just do Brickcolor.Random() theking48989987 2147 — 5y

Hi!
It was expecting a BrickColor value, but you gave it a String value!
Simple fix!
copy.BrickColor = BrickColor.new(colors[math.random(1, 3)]) --This is what your BrickColor line should look like
What you were essentially doing:
copy.BrickColor = "ColorHere" --Incorrect
What its doing now:
copy.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("BrickColorHere") --Correct

Color3.fromRGB is guaranteed to work, sometimes BrickColor doesn't accept strings DeceptiveCaster 3761 — 5y

I tested it in Studio...It is working as advertised. Thetacah 712 — 5y

*ahem* if strings don't work use numbers DeceptiveCaster 3761 — 5y

No need for that. The code I posted works perfectly fine(Just as much as using Color3.fromRGB would). Thetacah 712 — 5y
