Syntax#

vngen_scene_modify_style(id, col1, col2, col3, col4, alpha, duration, [ease]);

Argument	Type	Description
`id`	real/string	The ID of the scene to modify (or keyword `all` for all scenes)
`col1`	color	The top-left gradient color, where `c_white` is default
`col2`	color	The top-right gradient color, where `c_white` is default
`col3`	color	The bottom-right gradient color, where `c_white` is default
`col4`	color	The bottom-left gradient color, where `c_white` is default
`alpha`	real (0-1)	The alpha transparency value, where 1 is default and 0 is fully transparent
`duration`	real	Sets the length of the modification transition, in seconds
`[ease]`	integer/macro	Optional: Sets the ease mode to perform the transition in

Description#

Applies a four-color gradient and transparency modifications to the input entity ID. Color values can be input using GameMaker Studio's built-in color constants or functions like VNgen's make_color_hex_to_rgb.

All modifications made with this script are permanent and will persist until another modification is performed. This script cannot be performed simultaneously with other modification actions operating on the same entity ID.

See Macros & Keywords for a list of available ease modes.

Example#

vngen_event() {
   vngen_scene_modify_style("bg", c_yellow, c_yellow, c_orange, c_orange, 1, 2);
}

This will apply a warm set of colors to the scene "bg", simulating a sunset.
