Game colors vs Webfriendly[edit]
Ok, so the game colors aren't the webfriendly colors consisting of combinations of hexadecimal 00, 33, 66, 99, cc, ff (which can be abbreviated to the single digits 0, 3, 6, 9, c, f). So, what color values do we go with for tiles? Is there even a discernible difference between the color as in the game, or a web friendly approximation, that is, should color #808080 for example be approximated to #999999 (same as #999)?
Examples:
| Object | Code | Game | Web |
|---|---|---|---|
| Galena | [COLOR:7:7:1] | £ |
£
|
| Sphalerite | [COLOR:0:7:1] | £ |
£
|
| Pig tail | [COLOR:7:0:0] | τ |
τ
|
| Plump helmet | [COLOR:5:0:0] | ♠ |
♠
|
| Plump helmet spawn | [COLOR:4:0:1] | . |

Dye color RGB values?[edit]
Each color token (currently used only for dyes) includes very specific RGB values; however, they're never actually used for anything, instead seemingly being replaced by one of the base 16 colors with the closest RGB values - Emerald dye normally comes up as color COLOR:2:1, though if I change the RGB values from 80/200/120 to 80/100/220 it starts using COLOR:1:1 instead. --Quietust 12:48, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
