To decide which colors to use for a tile in ASCII mode, DF looks at raw values for that object (color value or color token) and selects a foreground and background color from the 16 colors in the [[color scheme]]. When a color value is defined, it directly picks it from the 16. When instead a color token is defined, the game compares the color token definition to all 16 colors in the color scheme and picks the closest match. | To decide which colors to use for a tile in ASCII mode, DF looks at raw values for that object (color value or color token) and selects a foreground and background color from the 16 colors in the [[color scheme]].
