multiball colorS not working

[Anton]

(split from topic: http://liine.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=553, to prevent further offtopic there).

It seems that colorS is not working for me, it always outputs 0.
when i put the folling expression on the value of monitor:

Code: Select all

 getattribute(Multiball, 'colors')

it always outputs 0.
Whereas if I use color iget the number of the box color. Either that or I am missing something.
(yes i have multicolor turned on)

Bump anybody able to get a valid number out of a ball from a multiball?

Hi Nick,

Thanks but i really do not get why in your example the monitor does display the Multiball's color values and when i use the exact same expression it does not function.
What am I doing wrong in this ultra basic example?

PS would save a minor hassle if you added .jzml to the allowed extension in phpbb.
In the attached example all i try to do is monitor the color of the balls.

so I got a step closer. The monitor doesn't receive any numbers onload. its only gets a multiball color if it changes. Is that a bug perhaps?
