Hey I have a really good idea.
Now that we are in the future which is 2012, I was really thinking hard on what should be improved for Spiral Knights. That is namecolor.
Ill describe it. I was really bored that the chat had everybodys name to white. Now, I want to change it up and make the NAMES in different colors. Thats right. But the messages wont be in color. Only the names. White is the main color for the chat messages. So heres a example of what I want.
My player is blue. Since I made my knight blue and that it would appear on your armour, it would be my main color. So that should mean that if your blue, your name on the chat would be blue. The letters will be the same design.
Your name in the chat will be colored based on what main color you chose at the beginning. So I choose blue as my main, my name on the chat will be blue.
*EDIT*
The namecolors are free. Your name will be colored on the main color you chose.
Chat already uses colors to differentiate channels. A rainbow of colours would be too distracting and confusing.
