mud colour issues
|
hi, i'm having issues with inputting the colour codes in the mud i play.
what i'm trying to imitate is this
but as you can see from the next screen shot, i seem to be losing everything after the &*
i'm not sure if there's any way to fix this. i've copied and pasted the chars that a player that uses zmud entered, and they work for him, but not for me.
any way to fix this?
thanks |

1)Do you have your Color Syntax filled in for Color Preferences?
2)your color syntax uses &, do you have the DB module open and a database open? Might be that it's looking for the database before looking for color codes, since & is used to refer to database columns. You can try turning off or changing this special character in the Scripting|Special Characters preferences.
3)use ` at the beginning of the line to force CMud to not parse the line. |

both disabling the special character &, and disabling parsing both worked.
