    The nice thing about the webclient, is you don't need to take a screenshot, you can copy paste!

    Questions: Can we use these new colors for stage effects? If we can and do, what do people who don't have a client that supports it see?
    Any sufficiently advanced pun is indistinguishable from comedy.
  • SsalissSsaliss
    I'm guessing this comes into effect in those cases:

    In the case where you happen to have configured colours in the extended range, and then either disable xterm sequences or switch to a client that does not support them, Lusternia will automatically downsample the colours into the ANSI colour range.

    I haven't enabled extended colours anywhere beyond colour configs yet. Stage effects are certainly a place I can look into adding them, though.

    And Ssaliss is correct regarding how Rapture will handle it for those without xterm enabled.

    Also, for anyone curious, this is how colours are downsampled when necessary (the differences in foreground and background downsampling in some places are the result of basic ANSI sequences allowing a further-restricted set of values for background colours):

    OH MY ESTARRA! Having these able to be used in Stage colors would make them so fantastic. People could take customization on a stage to a new level

    I will take back everything bad I ever said about Lusternia if the colours get made usable by the stage. Gimme gimme gimme.

    EDIT: thank you for introducing a brown colour, It is something I sincerely noticed when thinking aesthetically.

    Question: Is there a way to make this work on mushclient? If so, how? If not, should I take the plunge and switch to mudlet?

    It works right out of the box on MUSHclient for me. What version are you running? (It'll be in Help->About MUSHclient, or you can Note(Version()) as a script to see it as well)

    EDIT: Disregard that question. Did some digging, and Rapture(Lusternia's Engine) uses MTTS to detect if a client can support the 256 colour scheme. While MUSHclient has supported the scheme since 4.03 (released in April 2007), and MTTS has technically always been supported if you want to write extra code for it, MTTS support was only added as a built in thing in 4.93 (released July 2014). I recommend updating to the current version (as of this comment, 4.95). All of your stuff -should- work post-upgrade, and it shouldn't require any changes in your scripts. You can find it on the MUSHclient forums in the announcement section, or for a shortcut, the following link: http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/bbshowpost.php?id=12633
  • MoiMoi
    Ahah. I was still on 484. Thanks, Altera!
  • IeptixIeptix
    So long as your client supports 256 colours, you can also CONFIG XTERM ON in-game to manually enable them if autonegotiation isn't possible for whatever reason.

    For a data point, I logged in in a version of mushclient that didn't support it initially and then switched over to an updated version that did. It did not autonegotiate, but CONFIG XTERM ON worked fine. Probably due to it being the same session or something like that, though.
  • MaligornMaligorn Windborne
    Strangely, while my citytells are coloured 147, whenever anybody but myself speaks on the aether, their color is reverted to color 6. This is lame. Please fix.

    Sorry, but I hate this. The colors I'm unable to config (WHO entries, ambient text, etc) have all reverted to being dark and impossible to read for me. It's overwriting my client settings whether it's config'd on or not, making the game basically unplayable for my very sensitive eyes.

    Also, it seems CONFIG XTERM turns on every time you log on (I'm guessing through a supported client). Can you make it so if you CONFIG XTERM OFF, it doesn't use these colors at all, ever?

    Could, yes.

    There's a lot of can in the stage mechanics. And not a lot of do.

    Sounds like a bug, really, or at least something unintended.

    It's doing the opposite for me, automatically turning itself off when I had it on.

    Xterm will automatically default to off unless your client specifically supports negotiation of the protocol. This is by design, since if it stayed on and you later logged in with a client lacking negotiation and color support, bad things happen (to you, it doesn't effect us in any way).

    I'll bug it, but mine keeps turning itself back on. I turned it on to play with it, but on my phone, the client I'm using doesn't support it, and I'll go to do certain things and the text will be gone unless I CONFIG XTERM OFF again.

    I am having issues with this.  I logged in and most of my colours are broken.  They got set to colours that I can't even use.  For example:
    pf              95   0  (pf): You say, "Blah."
    deathwyrm      121   0  (deathwyrm): You say, "Blah."

    config colour pf 95
    You cannot set the foreground colour to "95".

    I don't even know what colours I had on all my clans, but they are now really broken and it is bugging me.  Is there any way to get all of these numbers reset to what they were pre-change, when XTerm is not enabled?

    Turning it off apparently now properly turns it off. Huzzah, I can read my screen again.

    I'll see if I can adjust the config setting to remember if you've turned it off, though the negotiation is part of IRE-wide code that I can't touch directly, so I can't make any promises. Before I do that, though, I'd like to catch you when you're logged in at some point so I can check some stuff related to the colour negotiation, since it shouldn't be enabling it if your client doesn't support colours; is it possible your client has support for it, but you have them toggled off in your settings somewhere?

    Anything is possible, I suppose. I just know that I can't see some things when it's on, and when I turn it off, i can. One I noticed yesterday was checking ABs.

    "It's broken, but we can't fix it, because we aren't allowed to."

    I'm sorry you have to go through all this. If it's not working, you should be allowed to fix it.
    Everiine is a man, and is very manly. This MAN before you is so manly you might as well just gender bend right now, cause he's the manliest man that you ever did see. His manly shape has spurned many women and girlyer men to boughs of fainting. He stands before you in a manly manerific typical man-like outfit which is covered in his manly motto: "I am a man!"
