By the way, a Makecode palette can _only_ have a maximum of 15 colors, so all these 16-color palettes cannot be used in Makecode Arcade.

**Most** pallets you can drop a color such as NA16 I don’t use the purple because the darker colors can achieve the same effect most the time  
and I’d say its working

no makecode uses 16 colors but to change the color 0 you have to edit pxt.json which is easy
