| I have looked through all of the FAQ's and other articles in
the forum for information on this part of ANSI color but could
find nothing.
I am using SWR 1 Fuss gotten here modified only with a hotboot
snippet of Greven's.
My player makes a container that has multiple colors in it..
** makecontainer about &GA Large &RRa&Bi&Gn&bb&Row Colored Backpack&W
Normally if he only uses one color per word they get entered
as the keywords properly.. but the second he switches to a
different color in the same word the keyword to
use/remove/wear the item has to be used color coded like it
was when the item got made.
EX: makecontainer about A &Rred&W belt = Keywords: A red belt
makecontainer about A &Rr&red&W belt = Keywords: A &Rr&rred belt
How do i change the code to make it so that it dosent
require the user to enter the color codes to use the item by
its keyword..

| when setting keywords the player shouldn't be using colors unless for some reason the colors are also defining what the object looks like. So unless they're setting the short or long desc. of an object tell them to keep the color out of the keywords. The reason for this is because the keywords should be setup to be matched identically that's why it's doing that.
Not sure if that's what you're looking for but, the best i can do or say. |

| You may also need to alter the makecontainer command to properly strip color tags from the keyword. From what you show here it's not doing that. | Top |

| This exact issue is adressed at http://swreality.net under coders corner. They have the fix as well as the function you need to strip colors out of names, but not descriptions |
