About

SetTargetPlayerColorVal recolors a targeted player's body, hair, or eyes using a normalized decimal value instead of a predefined color ID. The decimal represents a position on the color slider from character creation: 0 is the leftmost hue, 1 is the rightmost.

This is useful for scripting or batch-applying cosmetic changes to player characters on your server. Run it as a cheat command via console. Specify the body part (0 for body, 1 for hair, 2 for eyes) and provide your color value as a decimal between 0 and 1, for example, 0.5 selects the middle of the color range for that part.
