How can I have random spawning actors with random colors?

I have blocks that fall from the sky and I have a few images of the same blocks in diff colors. I have them spawning randomly, but the blocks only spawn in one color. How can I make them spawn in diff colors?

    hi, I think the following should work, but untested: new integer attribute SpawnColour; in your actor to be spawned, change attribute SpawnColour (or Color if you live in the US!) to random(1,5). Then
    When SpawnColour is 1

    (all or some of these three, depending on the colour)
    Change self.Color.Red to...
    Change self.Color.Green to...
    Change self.Color.Blue to

    When SpawnColour is 2
    Change self.Color.Red to...
    Change self.Color.Green to...
    Change self.Color.Blue to

    etc; up to 5, or as many different colours as you want.
