Title: Color the GlobalChat lines
Post by: Totibbs on 09 Nov 2002, 16:12:52

Is it possible, by yes, how, to give colours to the lines of a globalchat-chat? Because its now all white. And that is not good. Because it is hard the see who what says.

And how can I change the names of people who uses the globalchat?

Because, my name is now: Civilian(Thomas) I want it to make "Thomas". So without Civilian.

And if a Police officer "talks", his name is "Civilian". I want it to change it to "Police Officer".

This is my script:

Quote

FountainPolice dotarget man

FountainPolice globalchat "Why are you up so early? And you look terribel."
~3
Man globalchat "I need a medic. Fast Fast Fast!"
~2
FountainPolice globalchat "you have to go North- East. By a red car, is a medic. an American soldier off duty. Good Luck."
~4
Man globalchat "thanks."

But ingame (Preview in the editor) it is like this:

Quote

Civilian "Why are you up so early? And you look terribel."

Civilian (Thomas) "I need a medic. Fast Fast Fast!"

Civilian "you have to go North- East. By a red car, is a medic. an American soldier off duty. Good Luck."

Civilian (Thomas) "thanks."

• How can I give the lines, a colour.
• How can I change the names.
