Can we have new colors please

[a1nthony]

I think this is something that’s possible? In xwis 2006-2007 some top qmers hacked so they would be the color “white” so I’m sure that’s a color that can be used. But is itpossible to add like.. Black, dark grey etc...

would be a nice surprise in a future update

I agree. Brown is my dream color in ra2, I used tibed to play as brown once, it was amazing. Forget about black and white. Make brown happen.

I hacked to get custom colours.

@Grant This is possible by displaying the changes only on user side.

So other players will basically won't see your custom colours. Only you will? if im understanding that right. I Prefer no colours if no one can see it but you.

The issue with custom colours is that if you set a player colour to be brown, purple, black, dark red, then it can be very difficult to visualise those colours on the mini-map display. Which is why I recommended custom colours on the player's side only. After all it's you who wants to see your army a different colour.

Is it always these two colours?

If it's possible to have new colors (that the other players can also see), I think it should be an unlockable. Like if you play more than 1000 QM games, you can choose special colored units, or even structures.

Nice idea

It's been locked to yellow & red since the loading screen censorship update that hid the names and faction.

I was thinking of making some unit skins, but only the player owning them would be able to see them.
Unless one of the developers can figure out a way to make it visible to all.

Yes .

Matt black units would be cool

Some colours have problems with the Super Weapon font (black) but some should be possible (brown!) 

White has obvious problems with the neutral house. I believe grey should be okay, but horrible on the minimap.

Who else but me should know when it's time to launch the nuke Muhahaha!

Black can be a problem in the radar and superweapon/power offline timer because of the black timer background. And chat too.

White is for neutral units if playing on maps with pre-placed neutral/civilian units.

Teal are really confusing with sky blue and green (e.g. in Operation Mirage, the three border outposts (teal) look almost the same as Einstein's base (green)),

Magenta - It is  confusing with standard purple.

Brown - can be confusing with Orange at night.
