Okay, some of you may already know this... but, I don't ever really use the Grey Text 'cause I like to have mutliple colors. However, I noticed that when you do an In-Game Display Text message, and make one line grey, it will only make that line grey! The ones after it can be changed to a different color.

[center]Text wrapping kills all colors, not just grey. If you want to have something like [red]B[grey]O[red]O[grey]!, you should stack the text...[red][back]B O [grey][front] O ![/center]

Yeah, but in briefing text that's not the case. As soon as you put grey or invisible, it all turns that color. Some people get the properties confused because of that.

No colour can overlap grey(except invisible), and no colour can overlap invisible after the marks untill the newline character is placed, so basically it goes on for the rest of the line. Other colours can overlap eachother.

I'm sure some of you have seen my Adrenaline map with the cool stacked name.

[Red]A[Grey]d[Red]r[Grey]e... Ect... But it's not like that.

Actually, here. Just put this in your map name in the properties to look at it.

It's pretty cool.

So the way you gotta do it is by doing that if you want cool grey text with other stuff. Stacked each one the other way or whatever I'm trying to say. I don't even know.

Edit: AH!H!H!H!!H! WTF is going on? MY text is screwing up. It's not posting right.
