Screen flash when picking up a key, how to do that?

I kinda want to do the thing when the screen flashes certain color when you pickup a key. Anyone knows how to do that?

You might do this with INVENTORY.PickupFlash, but I'm not sure if the PickupFlash actor can have customizable color. If not, define a Powerup with short duration and a specific display color, and a CustomInventory item that looks like the key and gives both the key and the powerup to the player, and place this custom inventory item into the map instead of the key itself.

An example maybe?

DECORATE code:

actor DummyKeyPowerup : Powerup {
  Powerup.Duration 20
  Powerup.Color "FF 00 00", 0.5
}
actor DummyKeyPickup : CustomInventory {
  +INVENTORY.NOSCREENFLASH
  Inventory.PickupMessage "You got the red keycard."
  States {
    Spawn:
      RKEY A -1
      stop
    Pickup:
      TNT1 A 0 A_GiveInventory("RedCard")
      TNT1 A 0 A_GiveInventory("DummyKeyPowerup")
      stop
  }
}

If you put DummyKeyPickup into your map, then upon being picked up, it will flash red and give the red keycard to the player.

I want this to replace regular keys

 

EDIT: Ok nvm, I got it to work.
