Random replacing text
 
Dont know if the subject really explains it but I want a trigger that randomly replaces pieces of text in say/tells and make them in colour.

Tried searching the forum for something similar. Its kinda strange and I cant really tell why someone would need it :)

Thanks for the help.

If I understand you right then you want to insert color codes into text being sent to the mud, so that they appear randomly pretty. I know that has been done been done before just can't think what the best word to search on would be.

I am sure it has. And you are correct. Perhaps replacing was a bad word to describe. More like randomly put it in colour as you write. I tried various diffrent searchs but have not been able to find anything yet

I found two different topics with two different (but similar) scripts.

I used random color, Exact Phrase, Entire Message, zMUD General Discussion, and the default 6-month period.

If those aren't what you want, you'll need to explain IN DETAIL what you are looking for.

ok.. After using the two braincells I was provided with I actually found a topic somewhat related.
