Multiple chat colors/options?

Hi just another quick question about chat colors... So if I wanted to make something bold AND red say, it doesn't work, here's an example of what i'm trying

Code:java

 if(commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("heal") || commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("h")){
            if (args.length == 0){
                player.setHealth(20.0);
                player.sendMessage(ChatColor.BOLD + ChatColor.RED + "You healed yourself!");

It doesn't work, please tell me how to do this.
Many thanks.

 

I think you may have to reverse that, so you need red first and then bold. I think I saw someone else with this problem a while ago.

 

Jogy34 that won't make a difference. It's because you can't have two non-string objects concatenated.

Caprei use ChatColor.BOLD + "" + ChatColor.RED + "Something" or ChatColor.BOLD.toString() + ChatColor.RED + "Something".

 

Ahh that explains a lot thank you so much!

Code:java

player.sendMessage(ChatColor.BOLD + "You healed yourself!" + ChatColor.RED);

That is what i'm trying currently, it still isn't working. I think I misunderstood what you meant, would you mind clarifying? Thanks.

Caprei the "" is just there so you aren't joining two non-string objects.

Code:java

player.sendMessage(ChatColor.BOLD + "" + ChatColor.RED + "You healed yourself!");

 

Change it to this

Code:java

player.sendMessage(ChatColor.BOLD + "" + ChatColor.RED + "You healed yourself!";

This seems to work a bit better:

Code:java

player.sendMessage(ChatColor.BOLD + "" + ChatColor.RED + "You've healed yourself");

Just made it sound a bit better and corrected DAZ3DND's Error. For the most part chase got it right.

 

Thanks everyone!

 

Lol good game. Guess I should read what I send before i send it

 

Please put your suffix is solved if you don't need any more help.

The helper just got helped??? Eh, no..

 

Really sorry to bother you again, but this isn't working.

Code:java

(ChatColor.BOLD + "" + ChatColor.RED + "You healed yourself!");

 

Caprei That code should work.

Are you using it with player.sendMessage?

 

Goblom Yes I am.

 

Btw, are you casting player to sender? (Player player = (Player) sender

Code:java

if(commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("heal") || commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("h")){
            if (args.length == 0){
                player.setHealth(20.0);
                player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "You healed yourself!");
            }
}
