Just a little something I've discovered while doing some scripting. Inspired by Ted's adjustment to Zombies (the "brains... brains..." float) I added a floating comment to indicate when you find the traders' shortsword under the counter. By chance, I tried appending another number to the command, and it seems that it controls the color of the float (though I was originally hoping to control the duration). The colors available are: 0 - white (default) 1 - red 2 - green 3 - blue 4 - yellow 5 - azure 6 - dark blue 7 - blue (same as 3) 8 - grey/dark green 9 - light/pinkish red 10 - light green 11 - dark blue (same as 6) 12 - black The command is then: attachee.float_mesfile_line( 'mes\\narrative.mes', line_ID_number, color_ID) Can this be added to the Dialog\Python Commands thread? (that thread could use a cleanup in general, by the way) I suppose we could also colour the zombies' float red or something...
Interesting: I was just using the colours themselves: attachee.float_mesfile_line('mes\\spell.mes', 20052, tf_red) Thanks for codifying this though It should go in the 'well whaddya know?' thread or somewhere similar be amended.
