Player name color change

[Blazing_Legion]

i need help with creating a trigger that allows people to change the colour of each letter in their players name to a different colour. I had created my own system but it was very ineffiecent and did not work very well (it stopped them typing messages ) Thanks.

Use Player - Set Player name to color+(Name of (Triggering player))+|r.

• Player - Set name of Player 1 (Red) to (color code + ((Name of Player 1 (Red)) + |r))

call SetPlayerName( Player(0), "color code" + GetPlayerName(Player(0)) + "|r")

Player 1 in GUI is Player 0 in jass

Use this tool: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/tools-560/quick-colorizer-v1-0-a-105376/
and follow the same method.

Ask Pyritie (tool author) for algorithm he used, maybe you can convert JAVA to JASS or VJASS

Do be aware that the native to return the player's current name as a string is not safe to use on AI players as the result can be local and thus result in a split.
