hello everybody!
Was wondering if some nice wiz would do some colouring to melee hits. ie.
You BARBABABAMAISETI VUOKRAAT Male fire giant forcing the heart to incinerate.
and that "incinerate" would show in red as fire damage etc.
rate this and maybe someone will do it

peace out!
Before anyone leaps in to do this, this is something that I assume
is done fairly often on the client side.
In fact, I would guess that different players have quite different ways
in which they like their lines of battle (and other stuff) coloured.
Therefore, I am saying that, while I think this a pretty good idea,
there are only so many players that would actually benefit from such
server side functionality and whatever colouring scheme is chosen
won't necessarily be agreeable to all those who would like to see
colouring.
I suppose the ideal would be some general functionality to colour
various different types of messages from the mud in a user defined
manner. However, this may be asking too much (especially as it can
mostly be done client side).
