Hide Color Tags

[Johnniey]

Is there a simple script for hiding The Color tags? (# FF0000 etc.)

For use in things like kill messages and chatbox output

Thnx ^^

Just an example:

getPlayerName(player):gsub('#%x%x%x%x%x%x', '') 

[Johnniey]

So this will change |SW|#99fff0Johnniey to |SW|Johnniey for example?

Yes for example:

addEventHandler ( 'onPlayerJoin', root, 
    function ( ) 
        outputChatBox ( getPlayerName(source):gsub('#%x%x%x%x%x%x', ''), root, 255, 128, 0 ) 
    end 
)

Johniey it's too easy just go to your admin panel/resources/scoreboard resources and press settings and then search for color names and edit it from true to false

Jesseunit, that's off-topic.

This code will remove player HEX color code's from his/her nick when they change their nick or when join the server.

rootElement = getRootElement() 
  
function removeHEXColor(oldNick,newNick) 
    local name = getPlayerName(source) 
    if newNick then 
        name = newNick 
    end 
    if (string.find(name,"#%x%x%x%x%x%x")) then 
        local name = string.gsub(name,"#%x%x%x%x%x%x","") 
        setPlayerName(source,name) 
        if (newNick) then 
        cancelEvent() 
        end 
    end  
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin",rootElement,removeHEXColor) 
addEventHandler("onPlayerChangeNick",rootElement,removeHEXColor)
