Hi!
I´ve just started to learn coffee, and now I´m trying to write an expression that makes two lights have the some color.
Can someone of you tell me how I can get the color of a light in coffee.
I would be very thankful for a detailed instructuion since I have only little experience in coffee-programming.
Regards,
Tiescher

I assume that you know how to get your light object.
The rest is quite simple:

  
var bc;  
var color;  
  
bc = yourlight->GetContainer();  
color = bc->GetData(LIGHT_MAIN_F);  
  
bc = yourotherlight->GetContainer();  
bc->SetData(LIGHT_MAIN_F,color);  
yourotherlight->SetContainer(bc);  
  
yourotherlight->Message(MSG_UPDATE);
