Overview
Colors are defined in display.text.
Each color is defined by a single letter. &<code> means to set the foreground color, ^<code> means to set the background color.
Only the preset letter codes are allowed, adding new colors isn't totally trivial at the moment.
| Code | Name | Hex | |
|---|---|---|---|
| r | dark red / crimson | #a64a2e | █ |
| R | red / scarlet | #d74200 | █ |
| o | dark orange | #f15f22 | █ |
| O | orange | #e99f10 | █ |
| w | brown | #98875f | █ |
| W | gold / yellow | #cfc041 | █ |
| g | dark green | #009403 | █ |
| G | green | #00c420 | █ |
| b | dark blue | #0048bd | █ |
| B | blue / azure | #0096ff | █ |
| c | dark cyan / teal | #40a4b9 | █ |
| C | cyan | #77bfcf | █ |
| m | dark magenta / purple | #b154cf | █ |
| M | magenta | #da5bd6 | █ |
| k | #0f3b3a | █ | |
| K | dark grey / black | #155352 | █ |
| y | grey | #b1c9c3 | █ |
| Y | white | #ffffff | █ |
In XML files, such as ObjectBlueprints.xml, the ampersand (&) must be replaced by the encoded ampersand (&)
| Prefix | Text | Xml |
|---|---|---|
| Foreground | &<code> | &<code> |
| Background | ^<code> | ^<code> |
Render Part
ColorString contains the foreground and (optionally) the background string for the ascii and tiles. Examples: &B or &B^r
DetailColor changes the "third" color used only for tiles, not the ascii. DetailColor is always just a single character. Example: g
So ColorString="&M^g" would be foreground bright magenta with a background color of green,
Like this!
TileColor overrides ColorString when tiles are being used.
If you want to color an item's display name, you enter color codes directly in the display name itself, for example the beaded bracelet:
<part Name="Render" DisplayName="&Cb&Be&ba&cd&Ce&Bd&y bracelet" ColorString="&C"></part>
Note that if a detail color is not specified, it will default to the background viridian color.
Additional Notes
Most default text in the game is colored with the bright grey (&y) color, so you'll often see an &y at the end of strings to reset the color back to normal.
For help formatting a string with colors, check out the super-useful qud-colorgen utility (created by crayon).
