Rainbow NameColour

[MrMonkeyPants34]

Hi there,
I have been creating a NameColour script and I am wondering if it is possible to have each letter or a players name a different colour using script, for example a rainbow colour.

The code I am using for the colours is:

    if arg-1 contains "c":
      set display name of player to "&c%player%"
      message "&2&lMCM &8» &aYour name is now &c%player%&a!"

Anything help would be amazing, thanks

So you want to create a command that changes the color of the player's name? But you also don't want to change the player's name, right?

Let's say i want my name to be coloured this way: &5xUnde&6fined

We will create a simple script that removes all color and format codes, and then compares the result string with your name. If it's not the same, then deny the operation as you would be changing your name and that's not permitted.

command /color [<text>]:
    trigger:
        arg 1 is not set:
            message "&cNo new nickname was set."
            stop
        set {_name} to arg 1
        replace all "&1", "&2", "&3", "&4", "&5", "&6", "&7", "&8", "&9", "&0", "&a", "&b", "&c", "&d", "&e", "&f", "&l", "&m", "&n" and "&o" with "" in {_name}
        if {_name} isn't equal to "%player%":
            message "&cYou can't change your nickname, only apply color codes."
            stop
        set player's nickname to arg 1
        message "&aNickname changed."

Didn't test. Tell me if it works the way you want it to work.

I have a GUI with all the colours, I am wanting an option for rainbow. So if you click the rainbow option, your name will be rainbow.
