Since people seem to post teaser tweets from Alex I figured I'd post this here:

Added a much-requested modding feature - secondary colors for fleet indicators. Number of segments is configurable.

Looking pretty cool don't it?

[Midnight Kitsune]

This is massive for modders as they were quickly running out of usable and "noticeably different" colors

[xenoargh]

Yay, good change

[Takion Kasukedo]

Very good change here.

Now fleets will be more recognizable

Keep in mind, this is a modding feature rather than something that'll necessarily be widely used in the core game. Not to say it won't be used at all, but still.

But the cannibal orgy pirates have to distinguish themselves from the normal pirates, surely?

When space captains go mad trying to hunt a white space whale, what other (fun) option is there?

Somewhere in here is a Reavers reference, but I'll let you folks stumble into that booby trap.

We need to get visibility on the Nexus community or Steam Workshop so somebody will make a mod that makes crew consume food, and also gives us an option to 'scuttle' crew members when we run out.

Why would we need Nexus or WorkS*** for that? I bet the modders here could do it if they wanted to
