Post by: FamousAmos on January 27, 2017, 01:31:02 AM
Also 'whisper'.

That falls under the 'psionics' category.

'help change color' has what you need.

Wow, thanks!  Was having a hard time processing this while IG, for some reason.

Delirium, since you were the hapless victim that answered the OP's question, I'm now latching onto you.  ;)

So, I've tried several times to get the MUD-generated colors to work, but haven't had success.  I'm using SimpleMU, and had quite a few color-triggering "events" that I deleted, in case that was the cause of the issue - no luck.  I even tried copy/pasting the examples, just to see what would happen, but still no color.  Do you know what I'm doing wrong?

I wish I could help but I've never used SimpleMU. Maybe try creating a brand new worldfile?

I believe the replies so far are correct about SimpleMU I'm afraid, it supports a very limited colour set. I was using it until the colour changes, then switched to MUSHclient to be able to take full advantage of it.

As a quick test you can use 'change color palette' to show the available colours within the code, if your client has colour enabled, but limited compatibility you'll be able to see a handful of options in there, but nothing like the full rainbow.

Doggone it, that was it.  *sigh*  Thanks for your help, everyone.  Now I'll see what I can finagle with SimpleMU, or if I'll actually force myself away from it onto something more modern.  :o
