More Color Code's Help

[Johnniey]

Some time ago i posted a question for a way to hide the name color codes ( /viewtopic.php?f=91&t=33198 )

But i know i want to if there's a way to USE them..

Like in killmessages and ranking (left of the screen)

(off topic question, in which resource is the /me command )

Regards,

John

The /me command is a built-in command, you can cancel it.

addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChat", getRootElement(), 
function ( message, messageType ) 
    if messageType == 1 then 
        cancelEvent() 
    end 
end)

Example:

player = '#ffff00proracer' 
outputChatBox ( player:gsub ( '#%x%x%x%x%x%x', '' ) )

The /me command is a built-in command, you can cancel it.

Its not for canceling, but editing, its now pink and with the color codes, but i prefer it in our color and with working color codes

getPlayerName(player):gsub('#%x%x%x%x%x%x', '') 

Something like this, but this line deletes the code, and i want something to get the code working^^

Possible or not?

outputChatBox function has a last argument, used color code or not, set it to true, example:

outputChatBox("#FF0000Hello world.",getRootElement(),255,255,255,true) 

Did you meant that?

And for /me with different style, do this:

addEventHandler ( "onPlayerChat", getRootElement(), 
function ( message, messageType ) 
    if messageType == 1 then 
        cancelEvent() 
       outputChatBox("* ".. getPlayerName(source) .. "".. tostring(message),getRootElement(),255,100,0) -- should output in some kind of orange colour. 
    end 
end)

for changing colors of dx texts, for example kill tabs, you need to edit the resources

but if you want to get rgb from hex, its easy

  
local nick=getPlayerName(player) 
local col=nick:match("^#(%x%x%x%x%x%x)" 
local nick=nick:gsub("#%x%x%x%x%x%x","") 
local r,g,b=tonumber("0x"..string.sub(col, 1, 2)), tonumber("0x"..string.sub(col, 3, 4)), tonumber("0x"..string.sub(col, 5, 6))
