Need help with setting specular color

[Onamiko]

Greetings there. I am making a gaming keyboard with led lights and stuff. It's main prim has a specular map which highlights some buttons.

I figured out how to change their color with:
llSetPrimitiveParams([ PRIM_SPECULAR, ALL_SIDES, "e60ef3a0-06cb-71e6-7af7-a2b3cd6f710e", <1.0, 1.0, 0.0>, <0.0, 0.0, 0.0>, 0.0, <0.000, 0.455, 0.851>, 1, 50]); - basically sets the specular map to blue.

Thing is, the keyboard script has multiple coloring options, yellow, green, purple, etc etc. Also it has a Turn Off option, which basically turns off the specular map's glossiness making the buttons have no color highlighting.
llSetPrimitiveParams([ PRIM_SPECULAR, ALL_SIDES, "e60ef3a0-06cb-71e6-7af7-a2b3cd6f710e", <1.0, 1.0, 0.0>, <0.0, 0.0, 0.0>, 0.0, "", 0, 50]);

Problem is, when i turn the keyboard back on i want it to keep the same selected color as before. Is there a way to ignore the coloring parameter in PRIM_SPECULAR?

Thanks! I'm failry new to scripting.

No idea, but how abouts storing the spectacular vector into a global variable that is remembered when turning it on again?

Welcome to scripting, as my example shows one way to achieve stuff is thinking out of the box, you will get better with that over time 

It's like painting, once you are more experienced you will look back in horror at your old stuff...

As explained in responses to your identical question in the Scripting forum, all you have to do is save the existing color and re-apply it.

To lit a keyboard I would use Fullbright, and some glow rather than a specular map actually.
