I used these raws to test the behavior of DF's colors - it turned out that most of the "discoveries" I made were already listed at [[color]], but the raws are still useful for experiments sometimes. I accidentally kept them in the raw/objects folder once when generating a world, so I have a fortress with a bunch of STONE_240 furniture. (Worldgen structures also use these stones - fairly often, in fact, since I copied the raws from [[microcline]]. I ran across a human buried in a STONE_710 coffin in a tomb, surrounded by statues and traps made from various other colorful stones. I have yet to run across a dwarf with a preference for one, however.)

* Objects with [INVERTED_TILE], like [[minecart]]s, use the material's foreground color without brightness as the background color. STONE_550 and STONE_551 minecarts appear identical. However, if the material's foreground color is between 8 and 15, the color '''does''' include brightness. (Turns out this was on the [[color]] page all along...)
