Color Picker as part of generator

[NYTEMODEONLY]

Hello All! First and foremost, thank you so much for this fork and continued development. I feel like this fork is exactly what I need for my project, but I have been having a troublesome time figuring out the last part - the config.js.

My project consists of robots and their colors are the very first "trait" - 7 total with some colors being more "rare" than others. Below is a picture of my file structure, ALL of the folders have the same content in them word-for-word. I am trying to get NFTCHEF's fork to select a color first, and continue generating as normal and circle back after completing one to start over again but I am at the point where I need to ask for help to achieve my end goal.

I have read through the github and dev website but cannot nail down the structure of the json language to achieve what I hope to achieve.

tl;dr - Need layers in config.js to pick a color folder first, and generate an NFT as normal, circle back and do it again. 😅

I've tried changing the below so much, but each time fails, or breaks or doesn't do what I'm trying to do and looking to see if anyone much more savvy than I at JSON can assist. Please and thank you so much for your time!

const layerConfigurations = [ { growEditionSizeTo: 10, namePrefix: "KRF", // Use to add a name to Metadata name: layersOrder: [ { name: "COLORS" }, { name: "CHASSIS" }, { name: "HEAD", // options: { // bypassDNA: true, // }, }, { name: "EXPRESSION" }, { name: "ARMS" }, { name: "ACCESSORIES" }, { name: "UPGRADE" }, { name: "CPU" }, ], },

The code you have means that each of the traits should be in a top level folder not nested I think,

const layerConfigurations = [
  {
    growEditionSizeTo: 1000,
    namePrefix: "TradiesNFT", // Use to add a name to Metadata `name:`
    layersOrder: [
      { name: "Background"},
      { name: "Body" },
      { name: "Face"},
      { name: "Mouth" },
      { name: "Ears" },
      { name: "Hair" },
      { name: "Eyes" },
      { name: "Headwear" },
      { name: "Tool" },
    ],
  },

That is my config and all of those are top level folders, and they will add each layer in that order.

I have a nested structure in hair so that it only selects the correct facial hair to match main hair colour

But I dont list "Facial Hair" in the layers config but it still selects one and creates it as a "Facial Hair" trait

"attributes": [
    {
      "trait_type": "Background",
      "value": "Light Green"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Body",
      "value": "Black Hoodie"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Face",
      "value": "Yellow Pencil"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Mouth",
      "value": "Oooo"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Ears",
      "value": "Ear 2"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Hair",
      "value": "Blond Ace"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Facial Hair",
      "value": "Blond Curly Mo"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Eyes",
      "value": "Eyes 5"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Headwear",
      "value": "Helmet Yellow"
    },
    {
      "trait_type": "Tool",
      "value": "Plaster"
    },

if each folder of color maintains its own structure of parts (with required folders and weighted folders/files) you would want to have a single entry point folder in your config.js for all of those layers. (if you have any universal layers, they would be included outside of the COLORS folder and added to your layer config

e.g. the following setup

    layersOrder: [
      { name: "COLORS"}
    ],

For anyone who happens to land on this discussion looking for the same thing - I've found a temporary solution that I hope helps the next person.

In conjunction with nftchef's note and their guidance with using just the raw COLOR folder here:
layersOrder: [ { name: "COLOR" }, ], },

memonadil on discord suggested simply making an additional folder called BOT COLOR inside each parent folder and put a single blank .PNG inside with it's respective name (e.g. BLACK#100.png).

This lets the generator just see, and scoop up that trait along the way giving each of my robots their respective colors as a trait during the process. Here is an example of my folder structure as well.

With proper z-indexing, all my folders are identical in names, layers get placed in the right order and all bots receive their appropriate color!

Thank You x1000!
