Summary

0000747: [98e-r3417] Unexpected clear color at the ends of names

Description

The implicit color cancellation at the end of player names sometimes appears where it maybe shouldn't.

Steps To Reproduce

Color your name, e.g. 'name \cgPlayer'. Then try to append a character to it, e.g. 'eval + $name "\*" name'. The asterisk will be uncolored, unlike 98d.

Additional Information

This effectively reduces the maximum length of names when trying to append a character, because the no-color code takes two characters.

Notes
(0009101) Watermelon (developer) 2014-06-11 21:21	Still occur in 2.0? I know there was a lot of chat overhaul

(0009150) Frits (reporter) 2014-06-12 17:54	It still occurs in 2.0

(0018849) Leonard (developer) 2017-11-09 23:13	The terminating "\c-" is forced in the CVar itself, I will address this along with 0002303.

(0023506) Ru5tK1ng (updater) 2024-03-29 05:19	Tested this with 3.1 online and the asterisk was the same color as 'Player'.
