character text colors

Post by joe »

Hello again

I would like to show fake characters text in a different color than real people's text. Can anyone help?

Thanks

A bit more info might be needed here. Can you give an example?

Yes!

I can't tell the difference between real human players and the fake computer characters at first, unless they talk and say something like "you new here?" Currently they both have the same text color. So I would like human players' text to be a different color than computer characters.

I understand that much. Could you give a snippet from the game of a player speaking and another of an NPC speaking?

Essentially, how does one tell if it's a human or a computer? If it involves a judgement call (IE this guy just keeps saying the same stock phrases, must be a computer) then that's rather tough to try and code.

Hi I thought it would be an easy thing to do. I am figuring out how to tell the difference now. Thanks for the replies.
