Text Colour

[Fragger]

i was wondering if there was any way of changing the colour of the text in the resource trading box. When ur an ally of the other player, i want the number of the value to appear dark grey, as if ur not allowed to share resources (iv already greyed out the box surrounding the number). Alternatively, is there any way of not allowing resource trading between allies (which i doubt there is)
The players in my map must not be able to tell who is an ally or not by looking at the "Allies" dialog, which i solved by greying out all the boxes + removing the tick within the boxes. you can tell who is an ally or not by looking at the colour of the number... :banghead:

I think you can...

In Advanced>Game Interface there should be something about trading box text or something like that.

If you change it, be sure to use the colour code stuff.

Good luck

there is a way to stop sharing.

in gameplay constants
miscellaneous section, if ur using WEU then its in the R's, change the ally trading increments to 0 for both normal and control click

Yes you can stop trading, I can't remember the trigger for it. Check under game and player, i know its there somewhere. If you can't find it post and ill take a look and tell you what the trigger is.

Can't you have no forces in your allies area and only use triggers to ally at, say, the initialization? I THINK this is how you disable the whole allies window (can't even click on it), but I could be wrong.

thx 56k, in a trigger i locked the resource trading, so that nobody can tell if the other person is an ally or not, the map works perfectly now!
(adds to 56ks reputation). thx for other replies as well.
