Is the minimap subscreen object set up correctly? It can be set to use colors other than the standard misc. colors.
I hadn't thought of that. This is why I marked most of the 'Misc. Colours' that operate on subscreens as 'deprecated by Subscreen editor'. I'm going to need to note that in the docs, and on the Wiki. String text colours are deprecated by CSSs. I'm not sure that anything in the menu exists for user-use; but rather, for backward-compatibility with 2.10 and 1.92.
I suppose changing the continue screen text colour doesn't work from anywhere else. That is the only thing that requires using that options pane, and could probably be good as an isolated option somewhere in the future. Then, perhaps make opening the Misc Colour setting pane impossible, to prevent user confusion.
Do you know if the Link's position not changing on any swatch other than 61 (with pal modifiers) is a bug, or intentional? I need to remember to document all this stuff, as zscript.txt's version is very antiquated, and it isn't on the Wiki at all. (Misc colours are mentioned in some of the editor pane options, but the actual Misc Colours pane is not up there, at present, which I shall soon rectify.)
