So I really like the new "Replace Color" Action in Games Factory 2. However, I'm not quite sure how to use the "Calculation" (expression editor) feature.
By the way, if you're confused at what I'm talking about, go to the event editor and create a new event that is "Upon pressing space bar..." action for Active Object 1: "Animation" > "Replace Color"
Then I choose the color I want to replace. Next, I get to choose what to change the color to and I see a button that says "Calculation" and it brings up the Expression Editor.
So what I want to know is... what sorts of things can I put in the expression editor here? The only calculation I know is...
RGBAT( >object< , >x< , >y< )
Which pulls the color from a point on some object. Can I also do some calculation like set color to RGB(50,90,10) ? I tried that exact one and it didn't work. I would like to set my object to a color RGB based off Counter objects that change during the game.

There is an expression for that. In the Expression Editor (the calculator) you click "Retrieve data from object" or whatever that button says, then go the Special object (looks like a computer) and on that list you should find Colors. That will have what you're looking for.
