Weapon color customization

We have had weapon skins for a few years and we needed to create a system that was easier for us to maintain in the long run and also give more impact for the players. Weapon colors is able to be applied to any weapon. Weapon colors changes the painted parts of any weapon the player has applied to the weapon.
