You can create a new dynamic colorset while the server is running, without having people need to rejoin.

If you want to know how, ask Port ( I have seen it on his server ).

erm, i don't think you can do this..
Changing datablocks will only show if you transmitdatablocks();

bad idea :p

Then explain why I have seen it on ports server
The colors in the color table (or whatever) on the bottom left changed too

well, you can do this, but i'm not sure it would be
it's possible, but i don't think it's a good idea

It's not a good idea.

Let me explain what happens, using the default colorset as an example:

Color ID 0 is red: 0.9 0 0 1
You plant brick 1 with color ID 0. It's red.
You change color ID to: 0 0 0.9 1, it's now blue.
You plant brick 2 with color ID 0.
Brick 1 is red and brick 2 is blue.
A new player joins the server.
He sees brick 1 and 2, and sees that they're both blue.
You save the bricks, and restart the server.
Both the bricks are now red.

With a looong piece of code and creating a new saving system for colours, i'm pretty sure it can be done. It's not efficient though.
