Con Colour

it's not really a huge issue, but I tried changing my con_color and I got black. So after testing for awhile I got red. And only red. 255-155-50? Blood red. 255-0-0? Blood red. 0-255-0? Black. 0-0-255? Black. How do I reset the colour? Blood red is rather hard to see in this game.

cheers.

    I'm guessing here that you're typing "con_color 255-155-50", when you should be using spaces between the numbers instead of hyphens.

    yup. The -'s make the game engine think it's all one number thats >255, which is not allowed, so it automatically turns the number into 0, which is black <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Nonono you are all doing it wrong....well at least half-right anyway (no -s)

    Just remember to surround the numbers with quotes....or you'll have the same problem

    if you're like me, you found this reply confusing. to simplify it:

    WRONG: con_color 255-255-255
    RIGHT: con_color "255 255 255"

    No NO NO, all wrong

    Wrong = con_color 255-255-255
    Wrong = con_color "255 255 255"
    Right = /con_color "255 255 255"
