@Delphinus I did it! I made a super-glossy part :D The colour is modded by changing the value of "r" (probably stands for reflection). Higher values means better gloss. Can you see the difference between the modded gloss and the normal gloss?

    @icecoldlava Apparently negative values do nothing, it's same as regular flat paint. Sorry :(

    @Delphinus The devs should add this "Chrome" colour to the paint job :D

    @Delphinus Oh wait if the max value is 1 I actually changed the blue engine's value into 5 lol.

    @Bakon That blue engine has a value of r=5.0 which makes it very glossy.

    @Bakon Go to any plane's XML, scroll to bottom, and you'll see some text that says

    "Material color="(color number, such as 000000)" r="0.25" You can change the r into any number (in this case it's 0.25 which is semi-gloss). The higher the number, the glossier the colour.
