Created in a Pigment Laboratory using various quantities of ingredients. The 11 ingredients are:

The 4 catalysts are:

Uses

  • Paint is primarily used as a building material, and in research.
  • You can buy a Paint License in the Desert Nomad Store. When using this it costs 75 paint to paint your warehouse.
Paint License: Permission to paint one warehouse once. Supplied in packs of 5
  • You can use paint to add color to Shop shelves at the cost of 10 paint per shelf.
  • When a building or research requires paint of a non-specific colour (ie, Greenish, or Whiteish), then any paint colour with that non-specific colour in the name will be accepted. For example, Spring Green and Forest Green will both satisfy a requirement for Greenish paint.

Recipes

Recipes involving the catalysts are Character Specific and thus will be different from person to person.

Some Base ingredients react with each other, the magnitude and direction of this reaction is also character specific.

Reactionless Paint Recipes involving just the base ingredients that don't react with each other can be used by anyone.

Ingredients and Mixing

There are eleven base ingredients, and each has a starting RGB value, listed below. Note: in earlier tellings, ores were used instead of metals. However, the RGB values are unchanged.

Paint Reactions

Here is the full table of possible reactions. Every player will have the same Color Reaction according to the table below, but the magnitude of the reaction (between -64 to +63) is avatar dependent.

Tools

The following tools were available for T7, but may need changes to work in T9 and later

  • Note: I gathered my reactions today. I had to update reactions.txt to use the Paint Reactions table on this page. I also added some notes/comments to help newbies (which I am today) figure out how you're suppose to test you reactions.
    • Alternatively try this zip of Practical Paint for T8 T9. It might help, not sure.
    • Updated PracticalPaint with T9 reactions and Ingredients (FalconsBait instead of EarthLight) | PracticalPaint.zip ~Larame - December 12, 2019
      • If you are already using PracticalPaint in T9, you need to edit your reactions.txt file and replace EarthLight with FalconsBait.
    • This zip is 100% the same as the T7 link except updated reactions.txt : https://ceg.atitd.org/paint/PracticalPaintT9-Ceg.zip
      • Added to website since T9 wiki doesn't currently allow .zip to be uploaded. ~Cegaiel - November 24, 2019
      • Updated reactions.txt to include Silver (PracticalPaintT9-Ceg.zip updated) on December 6, 2019 ~Cegaiel
      • Created Video to show friend how to use Automato's paint_watch.lua to get their reactions for Practical Paint's reaction.txt file.
      • Automato Paint mix Macro
      • Maybe it will help you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccLGduqM0Oc ~Cegaiel - August 8, 2018
