I typed
"stairs = GREEN,"
"stairs = GREEN;"
"stairs = 2,"
"stairs = 2;"

to no effect.

you need

Code: [Select]

stairs_light = GREEN,
stairs_dark = GREEN,

in colors.lua where the other colors are.

It's because all map cells (not monsters or items) can have two colors -- depending on whether they are explored or visible. Setup this:

Code: [Select]

stairs_light = GREEN,
stairs_dark = GREEN,

...and it should work.

Or read carefully the header of the file you're modifying:

Code: [Select]

-- Custom coloring based on entity ID's. Search the DoomRL wiki
-- for id's for entities.
--
-- In case of cells, there are two overrides - [id]_light and [id]_dark

Oh, and it definitively isn't the last version :D

Right. We are all experienced coders, and can tell entities from cells if you wake us in the middle of the night. Right, right.

Shouldnt it be in the readme somewhere ?
In the previous version it was plainly stated in the .ini what was needed to be written, in this one it is not obvious at all.

I'm looking at colors.lua, I see this line.

Code: [Select]

-- In case of cells, there are two overrides - [id]_light and [id]_dark
And at the end of the file? An example.

Code: [Select]

Colors = {
-- floor_dark  = GREEN,
-- floor_light = BLUE,
-- former = BLUE,
-- demon  = GREEN,
}

That rather clearly demonstrates the difference between cells and entities to me, and not only am I not an experienced coder, I"m not a coder at all; I haven't touched programming since the Commodore 64 I played around with fifteen years ago.

In short, quit being an ass.
