Shapez 2 Paint Mixing FAQ
Answers to common questions about color mixing, ratios, and factory planning in Shapez 2.
Shapez 2 uses additive RGB color mixing. A Color Mixer building combines exactly one unit of two input colors to produce one unit of output color, at a 1:1:1 ratio. Combining two primary colors gives a secondary color, and combining all three primaries produces white.
White requires equal parts Red, Green, and Blue in a 1:1:1 ratio. Because a Color Mixer only accepts two inputs at a time, producing white takes two mixing stages: first combine two primaries into a secondary color, then combine that secondary with the remaining primary.
Red and Green combine to make Yellow, Red and Blue combine to make Magenta, and Green and Blue combine to make Cyan. Combining all three primaries together produces White.
Producing a secondary color like Cyan, Magenta, or Yellow needs a single Color Mixer, since it only combines two primary inputs. Producing White needs two Color Mixers in sequence, since it requires all three primary colors.
No. The underlying ratio always stays 1:1 (or 1:1:1 for white) regardless of throughput, since Shapez 2’s Color Mixer consumes and produces at matched rates. Scaling up production simply multiplies every input and output by the same factor.
