Extra Paint Finishes can affect equipment color
@Bababooie {Class::Null}
Before using chainsaw: purple color
After using chainsaw: red shiny finish
It doesn't affect functionality but can hopefully be fixed

I'll have to do some testing and get back to you, I've never seen that happen before
Thanks for letting me know!
you have to let the chainsaw cut something down for it to occur, it doesn't happen if you cut air.
it also seems to be reseting when you cycle equipment
Okie doke, that info should help testing, much appreciated
"Fixed"? To each their own.
How do I apply the finishes to (at least) my build gun?
(Not 100% a serious question since, like, obviously this shouldn't be happening here applying these paint finishes to customization would be a completely separate mod, in my eyes. If it ever happens though, I'd love that)
I agree a separate mod for that would be great, but maybe some people wouldn't want the color of their equipment to be shiny
Agreed. I like when things made for multiple types of people have options. I go shiny everything once I have enough tickets to unlock the finishes.
Funnily enough I encountered the bug without having the sink unlocked (as I have begun a new save with various other mods like Structural Solutions and catwalk expansions)
do you happen to be using Advanced Machine and Belt Mk++?
I'm just wondering because they also added new paint finishes to their mod which look very similar to mine
And I'm not getting the same thing to happen in my game
Just started a fresh save and only unlocked the chainsaw, still isn't happening on my end
is there anything else I should know about any circumstances pertaining to the bug?
Cen confirm I've been using all of the shiny Extra Finishes since it dropped and have never had my chainsaw (or other utility items eg build gun, xeno-zapper/basher, rifle etc) go shiny
...although a mod to allow me to pick shiny finishes for those things would be dope af
i do not use these, nope
as far as i'm aware none of these mods should cause the bug but it is consistent for me
i'll see if i can narrow it down
Try the ones that change the character first, perhaps if you have anything that modified which color you can set for the player/adds any new hand items
they do not seem to be the culprit

I will have to investigate more after a sleep, it's quarter to 1 in the morning and was just about to head to bed
Feel free to uodate if you manage to figure out which one's doing it, best of luck, and again, am sorry this seems to be happening
huh? https://ficsit.app/mod/MoreLoot
this is the culprit. @Andre Aquila <Aquila Industrial> 🤔 even when that's the only mod enabled, the bug happens

More Loot from Enemies - SMR
Bonus: Chainsaw can kill them and more blood. Get Paleberry, Bacon Agaric, etc, killing enemies.
it probably shouldn't turn the chainsaw red if i'm cutting down flora (also happens sometimes when cutting with no target)
Hmm, got it!! I will look into it asap. I think that mod shouldn't change the colors of the chainsaw anymore, this was from a time that the chainsaw was always yellow, and that mod makes the chainsaw a weapon, turning it red...
I think now that the chainsaw gets the color of the player, should keep the original color. Will change and release that fix soon as possible.
