OWOT Candy Cane is an identification script by [[JustAnOWOTUser|Dupy]]. Its most distinguishing feature is its blue & green text, making it distinct from other identification scripts. The colours alternate like a candy cane, hence the name.

==== Identification ====
==== Identification methods ====
Candy Cane's text alternates between blue URL and green coordinate links every 2 characters, giving it its distinct candy cane appearance.
The identification method that Candy Cane uses depends on the link types that are allowed in the current world.


The JavaScript URL links contain the writer's name, the character's write time in <code>h:mm:ss t @ mmm d, yyyy (timezone abbreviation)</code>, and script version. Example:<blockquote>—Dupy
* '''URL & coord links:''' Candy Cane's text alternates between blue URL and green coordinate links every 2 characters, giving it its distinct candy cane appearance.
* '''URL links:''' Candy Cane's text only consists of blue URL links.
* '''Coordinate links:''' Candy Cane's text only consists of green coordinate links.
* '''No links:''' Candy Cane's text is underlined.

The text is also bold in every identification method.


OWOT Candy Cane v0.13.3-1 (v2.0 alpha 1)</blockquote>The coordinate links teleport to the center of the character.
In Candy Cane v1.x, the URL & coord links method was the only one available. In early v1.x releases, Candy Cane's text would also alternate text decorations and URL types only every 1 character. This was changed sometime later however due to readability issues.


==== Candy Cane v2 ====
==== Identification text ====
Dupy is working on a version 2 of Candy Cane, which will be able to automatically disable itself on worlds with coloured enabled and adapt to worlds where making both or certain link types are disabled.
In methods where URL links are used, the JavaScript URL links will contain the writer's name, a set quote (v2.1+), the character's write time in <code>h:mm:ss.mss t @ mmm d, yyyy (timezone abbreviation)</code>, and script version.


Pre-RTM builds use the version '''v0.1x.x-x''', where the second number (v0.'''1x'''.x-x) denotes the development milestone, the third number (v0.1x.'''x'''-x) denotes the version in that milestone with higher versions having more milestone progress, and the fourth number (v0.1x.x-'''x''') denoting the version's build number.
Here's an example:<blockquote>—Candy Cane Licker


'''v0.10-v0.12''' are pre-alpha milestones, '''v0.13 and v0.14''' are alpha milestones, '''v0.15-v0.18''' are beta milestones, and '''v0.19''' are the release candidate builds.

OWOT Candy Cane v2.1.0</blockquote>
 
==== Coordinate links ====
The coordinate links teleport to the exact center of the character it was placed on.
 
==== Candy Cane v2.x ====
'''OWOT Candy Cane v2.x''' is the second version of Candy Cane, which started development on January 3, 2026, and was finished on January 17, 2026 with the release of the v2.0 RTM build.
 
Compared to Candy Cane v1.x, Candy Cane v2.0 has the following improvements:
 
* Ability to adapt to worlds where only one or zero link types are enabled
* Feature to change the username used in Candy Cane without hardcoding a new username in
* Whitespace and backspaces aren't touched by Candy Cane
* Only turns itself on when the world doesn't allow colours
* A checkbox to turn Candy Cane on and off
* And more!
'''Note:''' The improvements listed above only pertain to v2.0, not later versions like v2.1.
