The color "§g" does not correctly display on console.

The mentioned text color– which previously used to work just fine on console– no longer displays as a custom hue and instead defaults to plain white text as if not inputted. In the files below are presented the demonstration of it, along how the color is supposed to look from a screenshot of the windows edition for comparison purposes.

 

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open any chat box, it being either the global chat or an item's name on the anvil

  2. Type in the box the text "§gtesting" and look at the results.

 

Expected results:

The text should change color to a bright orange hue, different from its other variants.

 

Actual results:

The text does not display any color whatsoever, and thus it does not work as intended.

 

As a content creator, this frustates me the most since it goes to ruin the overall esthetic of my projects for the vast majority of the playerbase. Hopefulu this gets patched soon; it is not the first time this discontinuity of colors between the two versions has happened, but if i recall correctly, the previous ones have been patched. No idea why this is happening to begin with.

Still waiting for a response as of today.. If there's anything that i've gathered from my experience is that the moderators will only answer to your thread if you've got a major problem that is mass reported by many other users. Not exactly the best reputation to maintain when this is the only known method to report bugs.

I can't believe this ticket's still left unanswered lmao

I could not reproduce this in 1.21.1. Is this still an issue?

I've just tried and it doesn't seem to be an issue anymore, chances are a recent patch has fixed it either intentionally or not. Thanks for looking in it
