Can someone please! show me an example of a who() verb with teams being a different color. I tried 3 different ways, but it only shows the other people on your team, not the whole world.

mob/player
var/color

mob/verb/who()
for(var/mob/player/M in world)
if(M.client) //If player is online
usr << "[M.name] ([M.color])"

i think he means:

mob/player
var/color

mob/verb/who()
for(var/mob/player/M in world)
if(M.client) //If player is online
usr << "<font color=[M.color>[M.name]"

He wanted who() to indicate each player's team color as well -- that's the reason for the extra text.

I thought he meant having the person's name the same color as what team he was on.

Ahh, I get it now... not a bad idea at all. But you didn't put "code" tags around your example, so the forums took the HTML literally and I thought the green text just referred to the section you'd changed. Makes more sense to me now!

I get a couple of errors...

who()
set desc="Current players on Paintball Outpost"
set category = "Communication"
for(var/mob/player/M in world)
if(M.client)
usr << "Current players online:"
usr << "Player - Team"
usr << "------------------------------"
usr << "[M.name] [M.color]"

paintball.dm:234:error:M.client:bad var
paintball.dm:238:error:M.name:bad var
paintball.dm:238:error:M.color:bad var

mob
    var/color

mob/verb/Who()
    for(var/mob/M in world)
        if(M.client)
            usr<<"<font color=[M.color]>[M]"


Ah what the heck I thought I might as well give the code.

And that would be good, if it closed the <font> tag. Of course, it's probably also desirable to print out the name of the color, like so:
mob/verb/Who()
    for(var/mob/M in world)
        if(M.client)
            usr<<"<font color=[M.color]>[M] ([M.color])</FONT>"

Note your code will only work for simple color names like "red" and "blue" and such.

Ack, I got used to not closing them again since DS does it for you but I know I should do it anyways. Good habit to get into again.
