That sounds more like an issue with the way yer irc client resolves color codes.

BogusTrivia 2.06.4.6 color issues

2013-09-26T09:25:01-04:00

I am running the latest version of BogusTrivia 2.06.4.6 It seems to have issue with displaying colored text when more than one color is displayed on the same line. The problem seems to be with the TCL implementation of color on my server. Each \003 color command has to be terminated with a \003 command.

For example this instuction will work because the first color is terminated
\00302Blue Text\003\00305Brown Text

This instruction will now work
\00302Blue Text\00305Brown Text
The above instruction use the second \003 as a terminator of the first color command and will display instead the color number 05 followed by the text "Brown Text" in the default color.
Blue Text05BrownText

BogusTrivia implementation of color uses the second method when multiple colors are displayed on the same line, it does not terminate the first color with \003 before starting the second color resulting in the display of numbers instead of changing the text color.

Is there any chance that this can be fixed by setting some variable in the setting section where Trivia color will work in either mode? I think terminating the color with \003 command will always work on all systems.

Thank you
