Players Can Colour names to be like: &6N&5o&4t&3c&2h

Plugin category: Chat Related

Suggested name: Colourful Names
What I want: I'd Like a plugin where you can change the colour of a players name (just colour no editing the name) Not just &6MyNameisGold I want something that can do this: BlueRedName
At the moment I do this manually for every player who comes onto the server with /nick
If I give players the /nick command they will be able to edit their name from say bob283718 to bob which can be very anoying
I am looking for a plugin that can allow people to change the colour of each letter in their name
Without changing their name
Dave: /colour Blue:B Red: o Blue:b
Server: You can Only change the colour not your name!

Dave: /colour Yellow: d Orange:a Red:v Purple:e
OR
Dave: /colour &e: d &6:a &c:v &5:e

Player does /colour and this message from the server will pop up
[ColourfulNames] do /colour <Colour> (First letter of player name) and so on
Colours: 0123456789abcdef <--(all in the colours)

Nice thing would be disable certain colours like &4,&0 and &1
Maybe allow donators to use certain colours like &6?

Why it's a good idea: It's a good idea because it would let players be able to colour their names so that the server chat
is more colourful and people can easily see when whoever they are talking to have sent a message because of their (almost) unique colour that their name is

Ideas for commands: /Colour and /color (for the Americans)

Ideas for permissions: colourfulnames.colourfulname they can use /colour command
colourfulnames.colour.* They can use all of the colours in their name
colourfulnames.colour.(colour code) allows user to use that colour code
colourfulnames.amount.(amount of different colours to use in name) so I could make it so player has to have at least more than 1 colour in their name

When I'd like it by: a week or so I dont mind.

Thanks!
I dont mind if you cant do all of these suggestions just like the framework of the plugin would be fine too!

 

Maybe this Plugin would work for you not certain about it as i don't have time to test it

That is basicly What Group manager does already 1 solid colour for the whole name
I want something that can make a multicoloured name

 

I will give this a shot.

 

I'll try, would you want the players to give themselves nicknames in the process or do they need to be the player's name?

 

What about /nick &6Y&5olo
from essentials?

 

No nicknames
I think you could do this with essentials but they can change their name and I find nicknames anoying to moderate
seeing as not all commands work with nicknames

 

@JorgeEvil I think you can give them other colors. Like in my server I have &7[&9&lMember&7]&r so its
[Member]David1183

If you are using GroupManager, then you should be able to do this. If you essentials, I suggest you get essentialschat as it will help you do the color. This is the picture tis to help you. IF you can't see it, double left click to zoom. I hope this works

 

Also with your way (Which I have been using for over 2 years now -.-) Show me how the User can change the colour of their own name. Yet alone make it multi-coloured
I said NAME not Rank

 

JorgeEvil

Its "Which" not "Witch". A "Witch" is woman thought to have evil magic powers. Witches are popularly depicted as wearing a black cloak and pointed hat, and flying on a broomstick

Not trying to insult... But, i accidentally mis-typed "which" once and it ended up costing me.

 

Would Be really nice if someone made this...

 

1. Essentials does the nicks. 2. It supports multiple colors.

 

I SAID I DONT WANT NICKS!

 

JorgeEvil I actually saw a plugin request yesterday similar to this. I tried it, and kinda failed lol..

Check some of the plugin requests and you might find it, I believe it's a mediafire link in the post!

 

timtower Yea, that's what I was saying. I know it doesn't support multi-colors, I was just giving a similar plugin

 

timtower Yes I am still developing this. Wont be able to continue on it until monday, but I'm still gonna make it.

 

Code:java

onCommand{
 
    String coloredName = ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', args[0]);
    if(!ChatColor.stripColor(coloredName).equals(player.getName()){
        player.sendMessage("nope.avi");
        return;
    }
    player.setDisplayName(coloredName);
}

 

Garris0n Thats not really what he wanted. Atleast I don't think so.

 

Seems to be exactly what he wanted.

 

How's it going? you nearly done?
