BrickColor

The BrickColor data type defines a pre-set color. Unlike Color3, BrickColor is limited to a set of 208 colors. A BrickColor value can be constructed using the numerical index or name of a specific BrickColor, or using numbers as RGB values or a Color3 value which will be matched to the closest BrickColor. Creating a BrickColor with a name or a numerical index that is not in the set of BrickColors results in "Medium stone grey" (194).

Previously, BrickColor was the primary data type for parts' color. Compared to Color3, it uses less storage because it is stored as a single numerical index. Later, the Color3 property for setting a part's color was introduced.

History

At the time of Roblox's release, there were originally 32 BrickColors in Roblox Studio's palette.

On April 2, 2009, Roblox introduced 32 more colors to the palette, resulting in total of 64.^[1]

In August 2015, the palette is changed to a hexagon shape as well as 64 more colors, resulting in total of 128.^[2]
