How change players nicknames color?

Hello. How change color of players nicknames on server side? I can change source code if needed.

What is your goal? Change the player nametag (not name, but nametag) for different players?
Changing the name's color is currently impossible, but the nametag is now changeable.

Putting this in a mod should make admins have a red nametag.

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

local admins = {"amadin"}

minetest.register_on_joinplayer(function(player)
  for _, n in pairs(admins) do
    if player:get_player_name() == n then
      player:set_nametag_attributes({color = "red"})
      break
    end
  end
end)

You can change the nametag's color, so the name that floats above the head. But you can't change the chat color. I'm guessing he meant the former.
