For some reason, I need a way to display EXOT in grayscale depending on TMP. I tried to make a simple Lua script for this purpose, but I couldn't find a manual for this.
How can I make the EXOT color be gray, with brightness dependent on TMP?

You can use NEUT+EXOT to make it grey, but then it can't be encased in anything but WALLS/DMND.

Thanks, I know it. But for such an EXOT, the maximum brightness does not differ much from the minimum, and besides, the dependence is non-linear. And that's why I need a script.

You can check the source code on github for that. EXOT is grayscale naturaly with life above 1000.

As I said, instead of a linear dependence of color on tmp, there is a complex sinusoidal function.
I just need to set EXOT a color where r, g, b are equal to the TMP value.

you can set the graphics function of EXOT with a Lua script:

function graphicsEXOT(i, colr, colg, colb)

do stuff here

end

tpt.graphics_func(graphicsEXOT, elements.DEFAULT_PT_EXOT)

Here is an example for "do stuff here":

f = sim.partProperty(i, "tmp")

return 0, ren.PMODE_FLAT + ren.PMODE_BLUR, 255, f, f, f, 255, 255, 255, 255

It works! Thanks a lot!

Theres 2 ways to make gray EXOT

1.-EXOT+NEUT

2.-EXOT+PROP that sets the life to 1000 or more

First, these ways are same.
Secondly, this solution is completely not what I need, as I have already said twice.
Thirdly, a working solution has been obtained and I really don't understand what is the point of your comment.
