Hi,
I would have provide the sources of the modifications for my suggestions, but i don't know how to code with Pascal, so I ask here if anyone could do this, or for the 0.9.18.

When we are chatting in online mode, we never know which player is behind which team and we can't see easily who is speaking when there is too much talks on the same time.

So, if it is possible to color the pseudonyme with the team color, it would be great. There is a screen, if you don't understand me Wink Smiley

Thank you Wink Smiley

It's been suggested before, in fact I think I was among those who suggested it. It isn't going to happen though.

Why not ? It/s on /hedgewars-src-0.9.17/hedgewars/uChat.pad, only one file to modify (if only i knew pascal :\ )
Okay, we have to reorganize all the file and put a connexion with the file which decides the color of the team, but it's only one file, and pretty small ^^

I'm pretty sure, yes, Technically it's not a difficult change to make, but messages are already coloured according to to whether they are normal chat, /me, join/leave, and team chat. I guess things could get a bit confusing if you were to take it further.

Yes but actually we never know who is who when there is more than four players playing in the same room :/
And I'm sure that's bettre know who is who than can do /me . And it's only the psuedonyme which is coulored, not the entire message, so we can easily see the difference.
