Colours and Hex Locations
Different breeds may display their colours in a different way than others. Some breeds may include a certain hex location, while in others the hex may not apply at all. The following is the layout of what constitutes the locations. [colour] denotes a hex code that corresponds to red | green | blue. Each section places a value between 0 - 255 (0 being none existent while 255 is pure).
Eyes [colour]
Hair #1 [colour] Hair #2 [colour]
Body [colour]
Extra #1 [colour] Extra #2 [colour]

How they display in each pony
Most ordinary ponies only show the basic Eye colour, the Hair #1 colour and the Body colour. When S-genes are involved, only then will the colours change. For example, a pony can have black eyes, white hair and red body. If she shows the tips gene, the tips will then display the Hair #2 colour at the ends of their normal hair.
