    So I have no idea if there were threads like this, I apologize if >true.
    So VIPs have chat colors. When you open up the chat colors from the donator menu there are lots of pages of colors that can be chosen.
    So let's say i want Yellow (Game). Page 8, #6. K. It looks fancy, blabla. Map change. Name color is shitty brown. What happened? It rotted or what?
    No it just got changed to Brown that can be found at Page 1 #6 . And it's the same with all the colors. If you choose a number (the color is at) from a page other than Page 1, after map change it will be changed to the color thats at the same number yet at different page. Page 1.
    I need fancy yellow and its not on Page 1. Any fix possible?

    It's an annoying bug given that we don't really want to have to keep changing it everytime...

    ..but I believe it is the plugin which is just being buggy in itself.

    I have pushed a new version of this plugin to the master instances of the servers, it should activate around 5AM next night.
    The problem was that when reading back the client cookie, the index (of the colour) was stored in a String with the length of 2 (-1 for the \0 terminator), therefore only values from 0-9 were stored.
    I have increased the size to 4, therefore values up to 9999 are now possible (technically that many colors too).

    In a nutshell; it has been fixed and we will see this very soon?
