hello everyone!
Please help me to find a workaround to solve my problem.
If you use "50, 80 and 120" instead of a variable, everything works.
i need to use rgb variable in particle drawing but ran into this problem:

Code:
command /test72 [<text>]:
    trigger:
        if arg 1 is "attackbullet":
            set {_ell} to location 1.3 blocks above location of player
            set {_ell2} to location 0.7 blocks above location of target mob
            set {_v} to vector from {_ell} to {_ell2}
            set vector length of {_v} to 0.1
            set {_loc} to location of {_ell}
            loop (distance between {_loc} and target entities) / 0.1 times:
                draw 1 of dust_color_transition using dustTransition(rgb({rgb::%player%}), white, 0.8) at {_loc} with force
                set {_loc} to {_loc} ~ {_v}
            set {_damage} to random integer between 2 and 4
            damage target entity by {_damage}

on join:
    set {name::%player%::MD5} to name of player hashed with MD5
    set {name::%player%::color} to "##%first 6 characters of {name::%player%::MD5}%"
    set {_hex} to {name::%player%::color}
    replace all "##" with "" in {_hex}
    set {_s::*} to split "0123456789abcdefklmnor" at ""
    loop 3 times:
        set {_n} to subtext of {_hex} from characters (loop-value -1)*2+1 to loop-value*2 in lower case
        add (index of first element out of (split {_n} at "") in "0123456789abcdefklmnor" -1)* 16 to {_rgb::%loop-value-1%}
        add index of 2nd element out of (split {_n} at "") in "0123456789abcdefklmnor"-1  to {_rgb::%loop-value-1%}
        set {rgb::%player%} to "%{_rgb::*}%"

console:
Line 10: (test.sk)
Functions cannot be used here (or there is a problem with your arguments).

Dunno bro i think that there is a problem with ur arguments (probably missplaced the ) after {rgb::%player%} also use %player’s uuid% not %player%

I figured out how to do what I want. but there was another problem, I need to split the received values in {_rgb::*} into 3 separate ones. for example {r::%player%} {g::%player%} and {b::%player%}. however I don't know how to do it :emoji_frowning:

draw 1 of dust_color_transition using dustTransition(rgb({r::%player%}, {g::%player%}, {b::%player%}), white, 0.8) at {_loc} with force

need to change this piece of code:

Code:
on join:
    set {name::%player%::MD5} to name of player hashed with MD5
    set {name::%player%::color} to "##%first 6 characters of {name::%player%::MD5}%"
    set {_hex} to {name::%player%::color}
    replace all "##" with "" in {_hex}
    loop 3 times:
        set {_n} to subtext of {_hex} from characters (loop-value -1)*2+1 to loop-value*2 in lower case
        add (index of first element out of (split {_n} at "") in "0123456789abcdefklmnor" -1)* 16 to {_rgb::%loop-value-1%}

Set {r} to first element out of {_rgb::*}

Set {r} to first element out of {_rgb::*}
thanks a lot! it work!
Code:
    set {r::%player%} to first element out of {_rgb::*}
    set {g::%player%} to 2rd element out of {_rgb::*}
    set {b::%player%} to 3rd element out of {_rgb::*}

It turns out it's that simple. Even ashamed.
