Color in console comments #96

Open LeonN534 opened 3 years ago

LeonN534 commented 3 years ago

Sometimes we are far from the pc for a while and we couldn't read a message, so we have to go to the console. Everything has the same color and find the message is a mess. So put chat comments of another color in console would be great.

Unfortunately console is drawn by the engine which means OpenAG can't control the color. I don't remember what prints the chat into the console though, if it's OpenAG then it could at least strip the colors.

Actually, you can change console output color with a bit of hackery.

Well, yeah, of course you can. But this is OpenAG, I'd rather take zero VAC risks.

So... we can't do anything about it? Edit: I just read the same question onn closed issues section. I understand, sorry.
