As a follow-up to Emmanuel's super helpful script that lets you change the color for the followed car:

I'm not very comfortable with scripting yet, so I needed to reverse engineer a few things that I wasn't familiar with. I'll detail everything I did with his script. This might be obvious to most of you, but maybe it will help someone in the same situation as me:

- Open your theme in the theme editor
(Note: my customizations are based on Nick's 2020 ATVO theme .. so many widgets are similar)
- Click the Add Script button
- Name the Script SC_followed
(Note, this is assuming you are using Emmanuel's script. I learned that the script name needed to match the "public class" as defined in the class)
- Select the language C#
- Select the Generic converter script Template
- Replace the entire contents of the script with the contents from Emmanuel's script above in this thread.
- Save your theme and make sure the script compiles
(Note: I originally got errors because I was using a different name for the script than the public class
- Go to the widget or object that has the background colour you want to change and select it in the Theme Explorer
- Open the Overrides section


- Open the Override Background sub-folder
- Open the Data Converter sub-folder
- In the Script drop-down, select the SC_followed.cs script
- In the DataBinding drop-down, select entitysessionresult_obj
(Note: this is declared in the Script Comments, but I didn't understand what this meant right away :)
- Save and Export your theme
- Load the Theme in ATVO

BOOM!

Huge thanks to Emmanuel for getting me sorted on this .. it's a really helpful feature when switching driver context.
