Title: Colored server names appear messed up
Post by: dash9 on May 20, 2009, 11:01:27 PM
As you can see in the list below, sv_hostname for some servers appears messed up, for example: ^^55Nemesis I mean, I'd expect it to be: ^5Nemesis I was not able to reproduce the problem. Any ideas where is the problem? 213.221.124.82:27960 #0.7.1*THd*Clan-Server

It's intentionnal, admins double evey color character because parsing inside server browser seems to act differently.

Wow, I did not realize.. so if a server name has a color code, that one is stripped in the server browser. I imagine the original intention was not to show colors in the server browser. This functionality is obviously broken, because colors show up, by using ^^dd instead of ^d. EDIT: Willis said this is an OA bug, because the other ioquake3 games do not have this problem. So if it is intentional (I hope not), it should be documented, otherwise it should be fixed.

There appears to be some conflicts in the code. One author has tried to clean the strings while another author has tried to make the server list display colors.
Quake III: Arena tried to prevent it but failed and colors destroyed the serverlist alignment . Enemy Territory on the other hand allowed it.
OpenArena has an improved serverlist alignment but does still use the old clean command.

I didn't think it was that difficult to parse a color string correctly :P

Parsing a string that the user is allowed to change is always likely to contain errors. The fact that Quake 3 does not have a dedicated escape char and few of the default Q_* string functions knows about color codes only makes it harder.
The whole problem has been made more logical in revision 14+in http://code.google.com/p/oax/source/list

In Q_CleanStr() if the string contains a lot of ^^^^...dddd chars, it could fill the stack of the application. In theory, at least. I don't know how big the string can be.. I would simply declare ^ an illegal character and have only this in the loop: if ( c >= 0x20 && c <= 0x7E && c != Q_COLOR_ESCAPE ) { *d++ = c; } s++; I see normal color codes will be supported for server names. BTW, oax will be used for baseoa in the next OA release?

That is the goal. I tried to make the Q_CleanStr in Qcommon do its intended purpose (It is mainly used by bots to recognize colored names). I have thought about stack growth but my tests suggest that lcc supports tail recursion.
