You can use the palette name directly. The numeric value is only given for reference and might come in handy when the values are to be used in calculations.

PALETTE_IDENTITY can be used to disable any recolouring.

PALETTE_USE_DEFAULT will prompt usage of the default palette, which differs per feature:

• For vehicles, it's the 1cc / 2cc colour map in the company's colours.
• For houses, it's the return value of the colour callback, or a randomly chosen colour from the random_colours property.
• For industry tiles, the random colour of the industry is used, which may be changed by the colour industry callback.
• For objects, the colour scheme of the constructing company is used, which may be altered by the colour callback.
• For rail types, the company colour of the owner is always used for recolouring fences and depots, other sprites cannot be recoloured. Specifying a recolour sprite yourself is not possible.
• For stations and airport tiles, it's the company colour of the owner.

base_sprite_2cc	n/a

The base sprite for 2 company colours may vary. Following base_sprite_2cc are the 16x16 colour translations for all possible combinations of a first and second company colour. Their order is defined by the following formula: sprite = base_sprite_2cc + colour1 + 16*colour2, for info on the colour values see below.

Company colour helper functions

For company colour translations, it may be more convenient to use one of the following helper functions:

palette_1cc(colour)
palette_2cc(colour1, colour2)

Colour values may be taken from the following table. Note that their order corresponds with the order of the 1cc palettes PALETTE_CC_XXX.
