for the second, if you want to show the name of the player + color.

store the color into the variable first on Map Initialization.

  • Melee Initialization
    • Events
      • Map initialization
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Set Color[1] = |CFFFF0303
      • Set Color[2] = |CFF0042FF
      • Set Color[3] = |CFF1CB619
      • Set Color[4] = |CFF540081
      • Set Color[5] = |CFFFFFF01
      • Set Color[6] = |CFFFE8A0E
      • Set Color[7] = |CFF20C000
      • Set Color[8] = |CFFE55BB0
      • Set Color[9] = |CFF959697
      • Set Color[10] = |CFF7EBFF1
      • Set Color[11] = |CFF106246
      • Set Color[12] = |CFF4E2A04
and this is an example of how to show the message to all the players.
the below example is when a unit is died, it shows the name of owner of the dying unit.

  • Showing Player Names
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Dies
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Game - Display to (All players) the text: (Color[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + ((Name of (Player((Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))))) + |r))
