problem with coloring the chat - HeLiOn_PrImE - 30.03.2011

We are trying to put a default chat color different than white but we came across a problem that we can't solve. Every time a player writes 2 rows, the color of the second row remains white. Can some one help me, please

We need your code.

If you're using something similar to this...

pawn Code:
new PlayerName[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, PlayerName, sizeof(PlayerName));
    format(text, 1024, "%s (%d): {FFFFFF}%s", PlayerName, playerid, text);
    SendClientMessageToAll(GetPlayerColor(playerid), text);
...Then try replacing the {FFFFFF} with your own colour.

I'd suggest not allowing two rows of text.
Simple fix to this problem.

I'll Discuss this with my mate, see if we use something similar.

we use something like this:

Code:
new MMM[256];
format(MMM, sizeof(MMM),"(ID:%i): %s", playerid, text);
SendPlayerMessageToAll(playerid, MMM);
We need to make a new line if there are more than 55 characters. something like "/n", i don't know...

This will allow the second row to be colored?

Code:
public OnPlayerText(playerid, text[])
{
    new name[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, name, MAX_PLAYER_NAME);
    format(text,128,"(%d)%s: %s",playerid, name, text);
    SendClientMessageToAll(GetPlayerColor(playerid),text);
    return 0;
}
this should help
