Beter way to return the team color in the chat?

[Mötley]

I removed everything from on PlayerChat function as other would never understand.

I Would like to set the players name to be the color of his/her/gender-neutral team color

Therefore I would like to know if there is a better way then the option I choose?

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerChat( player, text )
{
        local White = "[#ffffff]", pTeam = TeamColour( player.Team )
        Message( "[" + player.ID  + "] " + pTeam + player + ": " + White + text );
}

function TeamColour( id )
{
switch(id)
{
case 0:   return "[#c0c0c0]";
case 1:   return "[#ff8000]";
case 2:   return "[#fb00fb]";
case 3:   return "[#00d7d7]";
case 4:   return "[#ffff00]";
case 5:   return "[#ff4c4c]";
case 6:   return "[#aaadf1]";
case 7:   return "[#ff2e97]";
case 8:   return "[#ffbfa0]";
case 9:   return "[#ffc4e2]";
case 10:   return "[#ac7a38]";
case 11:   return "[#ffffce]";
case 12:   return "[#06a4ba]";
case 13:   return "[#8cff8c]";
case 14:   return "[#94a969]";
case 15:   return "[#00008c]";
case 16:   return "[#ffffff]";
default:   return "[#d]";
}
}

What comes to mind is player.Colour and format.

Untested:

Code Select Expand

function onPlayerChat( player, text )
{
        local White = "[#ffffff]", pColour = player.Colour, pTeam = format("[#%02X%02X%02X]", pColour.r, pColour.g, pColour.b);
        Message( "[" + player.ID  + "] " + pTeam + player + ": " + White + text );
}

There is rgb to hex function as on the forum as i know.
I more like to use Team class with rgb, hex and annonce colors for each team.

Okay I ran many test. And It appears that the issue is the fact on server side player.Colour is not set. I could be wrong...??
Always returns white, I guess its due to player.Colour is a instance when not set?

With server side scripting the class can be set with colors.
Works like magic, Thanks @Thijn
