different color in local

[kwajkid]

Was wondering why sometimes in local I see some chat in a different color? Most is in white, sometimes see someones chat in brown

Hi kwajkid,

All messages send by avatars will appear in white (or whatever color you select in Preferences) while text chatted from scripted objects will be in another color. That is probably the "brown" you're seeing. Some of that text may appear to be coming from a live person because there's a repeater script in something being operated by a person who types messages to the object, which then repeats it across the venue.

Because all script-sent text is the same color, you can't easily separate repeater messages from those of other scripted objects.

You may be seeing chat that is relayed by a scripted object, which will always be a different color than chat sent by an avatar.  You can change the displayed color of chat to suit your personal preference, so what may be brown for you is yellow or green for someone else.
