Alright, I know that we're not supposed to have colored text in our maps at all, but are there any more colors at our disposal?
Personally I'd like to see more shades of blue, some orange, purple, and a teal-ish color make an appearance on maps.
Is it possible and if so, what else is available to us?
I know that if you start triple stacking text you can get new colors, but I have difficulty with triples at the moment.

No. I have tested all ASCII codes and all we have is all you see.

I believe you can only use the colors that game SC has used in game/briefings.

No thanks, I'm not interested in bounds anymore. I just DL, play them for 5-10 minutes & forget them.

Yes thats exactly what I meant
There is no yellow color anywhere in the join/briefing screen, so it's disabled there. In game yellow goes for "Detector" under turrets.

Sometimes, SC glitches and displays invisible text as dark gray/black text.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Gigins on 2006-05-31 at 15:37:27
I believe thats because of some hacks. At least I have heard that.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Noober on 2006-05-31 at 16:17:29
Nope, it happened to me once without hacks.

How can you be sure that other players had no hacks?

Hacks have extras. INHALE for instance has player colour hack so if your teal and you type a message and press enter, you'll see your name coloured in teal - same with ememies and invalid players!

Because it uses custom color values.

There is one way that it might be possible to create a few more text colors, but I've never managed to get it to work, if you could get the game to cycle between two colors very, very quickly, fast enough to exploit persistance of vision, it might be possible to mix two colors. However, I have attempted this before, and it didn't work out, and my repeated efforts to make it work failed.

Yellow is also used when player's leave the game.

You could mod the colors, but I doubt you can add colors.
