Minecraft Username: MCHelix3000 Brief Description: Color codes do not work in signs, even though one has purchased ExtCreations. Instructions: 1. Shift + click to place sign on chest. 2. Use colorcodes next to text. 3. Colorcodes will stay on the sign as if you have not acquired the ExtCreations feature. You may also place a sign on a block, bug occurs same way. How many times did you recreate this bug?: 2 Result: Color Codes did not work on signs with regular text. Expected Result: Color Codes should work on signs with regular text. Evidence:
I have ExtCreations too. I didn't try it yesterday, but today, if I try to put color codes in a sign, when I'm done I get the message "&1 is not allowed in sign text on ECC." and the sign that is placed is blank. I guess this is because they were disabled? Hope to see 'em soon!
Quote from ECC twitter: "Colored signs are back! Thanks for all of your patience with this " My result: All colours work, except &1.
It makes sense. All colour codes work except this one, &1 shows the error message and clears the sign.
The &1 color code has been the source of many many issues and bugs in the past and some of those have been major major issues that could have potentially ruined ECC there for it has been disabled. There is currently no plan on reintroducing it unless there is no chance of such huge issues arising from it.
Uh? When? I mean, before the 1.8 update, it wasn't disabled. Did these issues come back after the 1.8 update?
These issues have been around for a long time, people have just been finding new ways to cause issues with it each time one is fixed.
