Zandronum Name/Text Coloring

To color your name in Zandronum you need to add:
\c

...followed by a letter that represents the color you want to use, before the part of the name you want to color.
You can do it by going to options, player setup, and editing the name.

For Example, if I want to color my whole name red, I would write it like this:




And it will look like this:




If I wanted to color the "YONI" part red, and the "0505" part gold, I would write it like this:



And it will look like this:



Using colors in the chat works the same way.

Here's an image I made that show each letter and it's color:
Notice:
"L" uses the original color of the font.
"-" uses the default color.
"+" uses the default screen message color.
"*" uses the default chat color.
"!" uses the default team chat color.


Important:
-Make sure you write lower-case C even though that Zandronum doesn't display lower-case letters.
-Make sure you don't confuse between backslash and slash, you need to use backslash ("\").
-If you want to color text using the console you need to use two blackslashes before the C ("\\c").
