Background color in Tile World?

[tensorpudding]

Yes, according to the documentation on the author's site, you can change some variables in the resource file to do it. The file is called "rc", in the "res" directory, and the variables are BackgroundColor, TextColor, BoldTextColor and DimTextColor, which control the background color (the black background), the text (by default it's light grey), the bold text (white) and the dim text (darker grey). The colors themselves are in the form of triples of hexadecimal numbers, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hex_color for a description of how it works. If you're used MS Paint before, this should not be unfamiliar. The color "numbers" go from 0 to 255, where 0 is none of a color, and 255 is 100% of that color. These numbers correspond to the range from hex 00 to FF.

There's no way to set background images or anything like you would need to better emulate MSCC though.
