Hi Ross,

If you really need 15 colors, maybe you can use the Set3 palette 
provided by RColorBrewer (this is the one used by TraMineR up to 12 
states) and add yourself 3 more colors ?

For example (you can mix the hexadecimal color numbers from the 
RColorBrewer palette and real color names in the same vector) :

library(RColorBrewer)
mycolors <- brewer.pal(12,"Set3")
mycolors <- c(mycolors, "blue", "green", "yellow")

All the best,
Alexis.
