Color is a big part of making things pop in Untold Dawn, but it can be tricky for people to get used to.

Basic Color Code Syntax

Untold Dawn uses an RGB color system, letting you specify basically any kind of color you want!

The general syntax is:

|{RRR,GGG,BBB}words to color here|n

Where R, G, and B are numbers between 0 and 255. 0, 0, 0 is true black; 255, 255, 255 is true white.

There are 14 "base" color codes hard-wired into the system as single letter codes - for example, |w. These fourteen colors represent bright and dark variants of 7 shades. See https://imgchest.com/p/agyvrwm3978 for a visual representation, or the chart below for their codes:

Color Bright Dark Bright RGB Dark RGB
White W w {255,255,255} {192,192,192}
Red R r {255,0,0} {128,0,0}
Yellow Y y {255,255,255} {128,128,0}
Green G g {0,255,0} {0,128,0}
Cyan C c {0,255,255} {0,128,128}
Blue B b {0,0,255} {0,0,128}
Magenta M m {255,0,255} {128,0,128}

You're not limited to these colors, of course - you can use any color in the whole RGB spectrum your heart might desire!
