How do i colour-code the name of my house? I know it can be done. Also, it is possible to colourcode the names of Waypoints, very nice, but HOW!


Thank you in advance and

You can change the color of text almost anywhere in the game, emails aswell, by using RGB color codes in the format below:



\#ffffff\ = White



So for example:


\#ffffff\Shop Open \#ff0000\ Stock low

There may be two reasons, one being you have \ assigned toa commandthat just doesn't *seem* to do anything. -OR- An explanation might be that \ is a special command character, as it is in many programming languages. Or maybe I'm wrong about both.

I too cannot do the \ in game, but I found out why. You see I am from Europe, Denmark and we have a special regional keyboard with a few funny letters like æ, ø and å. Now then, this means that to do the \ I have to press Alt Gr plus the <> key next to my left shift key. And since Alt in game activates all sorts of things I cannot create the \.


The solution is a work around. Open your options and find the keyboard mapping and find yourself a key for Copy - Paste. Then alt tab out of the game or copy a \ before you enter the game and whenever you press your new keybind it will generate a \ for you
