Title: Player Faction Colour
Post by: Serenitis on August 17, 2019, 03:55:16 AM
This is an issue that goes back some way, and could still use some attention.
Previous thread (http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=14751.0)

The player faction and Tri-Tachyon colourings are really not immediately distinct, and where they appear together it can take some non-zero amount of effort to mentally separate them.
This is an example cropped from the best buy/sell infocard:

Could we look at doing one of two things please?

Change either the Tri-Tachyon or player faction colour in order to make them more noticeably different.
or
Add either a colour picker or a set of preset colour schemes to the player faction.

Making TT a darker blue would be the easiest route.
Eg: Changing TT to 50,159,236 gives the following result. (This is what I have done as a temp fix.)

Color picker available for every faction (so we can change colors of each faction.) would be a blessing. Especially when playing with mods.
