I was just saying that you don't need 'draw_textmode' to change the colour. Thats what you wanted, to change the colour, so why do you need 'draw_textmode'? If you want 'draw_textmode' in multiplayer you can define it once to set the font, it's not needed in a loop which will slow down multiplayer which you were worried about.
Who cares anyway. Have you got it working by the way?
