Q:

When you are playing the game, you may receive a message stating your inventory is full or you have no mining tool equipped and this will be in RED or if you don’t resume in X seconds in YELLOW.

I know there’s a way to print colour coded text in chat by manipulating the item codes, but is there a way to a: print RED and b: print text without the annoying [ at the beginning.

Any help / tips appreciated.

This isn’t related to the API, but the method used to create the “colorized” chat text is a corruption of item chat links. See here. That’s why there’s always a [ at the beginning, and why it’s limited to the different rarity colors.

I’d already found that link and that’s what I’ve currently been using – I just thought there might be some way of altering those codes to change the text as they obviously extract the code from raw data within either the dat file or direct from the server. Oh well, I guess colourizing text (apart from the item coding method) isn’t currently (and probably never will be) possible.
