#18 COLOR support for number above 255

[Anonymous]

Hi Paul,

I've been beating my head against a wall for awhile now,
and I thought I'd
share my experience with you, in the form of a request.

The 'index' value of a 0 COLOR statement is limited to 0
to 255. Until 5
minutes ago, I did not realize this, and I couldn't figure
out why LDLite
would not render my extended colors. I've been trying to
define COLOR
settings for color values 300+ for several months now (I
have taken
occasional breaks from it).

Could you possibly either enhance LDLite to:

1. Allow the full range of LDraw color codes to be
redefined on the 0 COLOR
statement
or
2. Generate an error message if someone tries to
redefine an out-of-range
color code?

Thank you!
Steve
