Problems summary

I needed to use the instruction for vim 7 even tough vim 8 is installed.

Expected

Use vim 8 instruction with vim 8 installed.

Environment Information

terminal: cloudshell inside tmux
vim/nvim version: vim 8.0

Provide a minimal vim rc with less than 50 lines (Required!)

" Loading Plugin
call plug#begin('~/.vim/plugged')
Plug ('mhartington/oceanic-next')
call plug#end()

" Theme
syntax enable
set t_Co=256
colorscheme OceanicNext

The reproduce ways from neovim starting

Go to https://console.cloud.google.com (You need a Google Account for that - it's free)
Put config above into .vimrc
Start vim .vimrc (for example)

Screen shot (if possible)

Looked like this (black and white) with the vim 8 installation instructions.

And looks like this without any additional colorscheme / theme (like default on Google Cloud Shell):

With the vim 7 installation instructions looks finally like it should:

Possible Solution

I am not sure if a simple mention in the README.md is enough.

Probably an issue with it being an early version of vim 8 or just that terminal emulator being used does not fully support true colors. If you want to send a PR, that would be great, but I think this is a very specific/niche type of issue.
