Hello everyone,

I think the 16 colors aren't enough, so here is my idea:
You can change the color with two new functions/additions

term.setTextColor(r,g,B)/>/>
term.setBackgroundColor(r,g,B)/>/>

When this is possible, there are so many things you can do with it. For example, a 3D engine.

Thx for reading

CCLights does RGB with it's screens, but I agree, and would love for RGB backgrounds and text on monitors and computers.

I do not agree with more colours. That is because I like the simplicity of the current system.
Also, like Shnup stated, CCLights2 already does this. And honestly, I dont see this implemented because 16 colours.. is minecraft. You have 16 colours of wool, 16 colours of clay bricks thingies (dunno the name), 16 dyes etc.

Then wait until it gets updated! :P/>
I mean really, a minecraft mod is not instantly updated, too.

Then make your own, because this has been suggested several times and rejected several each time, it will never go beyond 16 colours.

I (and more importantly, the developers) think they are enough. This has been suggested and denied many times.

Locked.
