In GM every color is a code like 65554 or so. I heard that it is possible to seperate the rgb from that again. You know how?

I dont believe that. White is 16777215 and as RGB it is:

255
255
255

I'm trying to get the average (mixed) color of two colors, and (draw_getpixel(..)+draw_getpixel(..))/2 does NOT work :D that why I want to know how to split them.

The first two numbers are red, the second two are green and the third two are blue.

That's the other way around. I want to turn the result of that function - a big number - back into 3 serperate values. And I think BSP is on the trail, thx! :D
