e.g. I have this:
Code: Select all
Message "This needs a Blue key."So, I tried using the colour codes that work in Print and HUDMessage:
Code: Select all
Message "\chThis needs a Blue key."So, is what I'm trying to do even possible?

LOCKDEFS text colour - possible?
Does anyone know if it is possible to colour the messages in LOCKDEFS? I'd like the "you need a X key" to be coloured appropriately to the key.
e.g. I have this:
and that just prints in the default red text.
So, I tried using the colour codes that work in Print and HUDMessage:
But that just printed the full thing, including to escape code, to the screen. I tried a few variants of the above, but nothing worked.
So, is what I'm trying to do even possible?

Re: LOCKDEFS text colour - possible?
I think I've got it. I don't think LOCKDEFS supports \c but the LANGUAGE lump does. So, I can put the messages in there (which I probably should anyway) and reference the entries in LOCKDEFS.
