Color Wheel

Description
For those that find the paint tool too restricted, this mod allows the player to change the hue of any block.

The Color Wheel can be crafted from the Inventor's Table using 20 timber, one blue dye, one red dye, and one yellow dye.

How to use: open the Color Wheel, put a block (or block stack) inside, and choose the color; the hue of the block is immediately changed.

Do note, however, that while the Color Wheel can change the hue of any block, changing the hue of blocks that lack any color from the start has no visible effect; pure gray is still pure gray regardless of how its hue is changed.

A big thank you to everyone in the modding scene, and particularly to Mackinz, whose work inspired me to create this mod.

@StarLordPro the problem is, this mod actually works with existing engine mechanics. Hueshift parameters exist for blocks, and can be stored in their item as well; hueshift is used when generating random colors for natural blocks like dirt on each planet. Adding support for RGB would be an entirely different issue.

i myself do not like the HSL color system.. i myself would much rather have a mod that uses RGBA for color options because RGBA is much easier to work with then HSL.. mainly because just changing hue with thisa mod do not chnge the intensity of the color on blocks.. just the gradient which is not what i am looking for...

Man, I need this UI for mech colors. I hate having to cycle through everything just to do it again for the secondary color.

@Public_Enema, I dont think its about script, but the way coloring in starbound works in general

How difficult would it be to modify the script to accept items other than blocks?
