Title: name showing up wrong when starting a skirmish game
Post by: dash9 on December 12, 2008, 07:45:02 PM
/name "^4^^41oana^7"
Single player -> Skirmish -> Next
You see "<red>oana" instead of "<blue>^1oana".

This might be somewhat related: When a bot is talking (in public) and it's addressing a message to a specific player by using the name of that player in the message, if the name of the player contains colors it appears wrong. I'm 99% sure it's distorted the same way.

Parsing of ^^ is problematic...

I don't actually care about what a bot is saying, or about that skirmish menu, I'm only reporting this because, as far as I can tell, the same ..parsing mistake.. appears in the dpmaster.deathmask.net page, only for OpenArena, not for the other ioquake3 games.
