Edge colours
In LDraw colour number 24 refers to a contrast/complement colour for
the current colour (number 16).
Notice that complementing is not reversible for colour numbers 6, 7, 14, and 15.

Dithered Colors>
LDraw can render mixes of the basic 16 colors. This is commonly called 'dithering'.
You can use dithered colors for any part reference, but part authors cannot use them to color
polygons or lines. Just typeline 1 commands.
If you want to dither two colors from the range 0 - 15, use this formula to find the proper color code:
[Dithered Code] = [Color 1] + [Color 2] * 16 + 256
For example, if you wanted to mix black (color 0) and blue (color 1), the calculation would be:
[Dithered Code] = 0 + 1 * 16 + 256
Which is pretty to easy to find: 272.
Finally, the edge-color of Color 1 is used as the edge color of the dithered color.
