				Hi, All.
The anim editor does not recognize Color as a variable though it is supposed to animatable (Error: Line1: Unknown Symbol 'Color').
Has anyone tried that? Is this a bug or it's just me? Thank you.

				it looks like a problem between the color type and the name (type color exist in script)

				I think there is really a bug with sprites color, with conflit name/type. I've renamed Color param to Colora for testing
And script now working. However it's not very intuitive to anim color with spline :p

Great! Well done. It works! Several off-top remarks though:
1. Do you think this change will not conflict with older wz4 files?
2. Will you post a pull request for this change?
3. What is [0..3]? Some sort of interval for the spline (or its point count?) I guess... If I set it to smth 0..2 or 0..4 it doesn't work...
4. No big deal, but Calora seems a bit less obvious than Colors. Can you call this variable just "Colors"?

				I noticed that Color type conflicts in any op that uses Color as a variable.
Same goes for animated tetures. Take a look at the example. Maybe the type itself should be renamed?

				OK, guys! I have found the answer!!!  
 Use    'color_'    variable to animate colors!
Many thanks for your help!!! Closing the issue.
