ornithopter distinction

Post by max-damage »

Is there any way you can add some team color to the ornithopter icon? It's impossible to distinguish who they belong to, as of now...

There is some coloring right at the back edge of the wing, but I must admit, it could be made more obvious. Perhaps half cover the wings?

That would work...as it is, the color doesn't appear at all on my phone...even if i zoom all the way in...it's very frustrating...

I try one.

Is that the updated version with more team color? Because i can see the color a little better in this version, but that might only be because it's on a no-color background instead of green (grass tile), blue (water tile) or brown (stone tile) background...

Yes, it's impossible to distinguish the team color when the unit is on the map tiles...

I know, but as i said, before, it isn't posts with no point to make...I'm not spamming the forums, I'm trying to contribute ideas and feedback...

And, actually, I've been relatively quiet...i used to post over 200 times per day when i was admin'ing...

If there is color on him I can't tell it, the only way I can tell is to select him and see what targets up? And I'm using a tablet. Maybe a dot on his neck or something?
