Region colours/Border colours

[Balthagor]

For multiple games now, we've found it challenging to set border colours for regions that had good contrast with the ocean/land and were unique from their neighbours. Someone on discord said they had suggestions, so we've started this spreadsheet to collect suggestions;

All colours start with 0xFF then 6 hexadecimal values for red/blue/green.

For those who would like to help but don't know how to get values for the colours, you can use this website as a source for the 6 values; https://www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_picker.asp

Add option to dynamicaly change region colors by player in-game.
Even if it needs a save&reload it would be very helpful.
Imagine the fine dark black bordered country is liberating the evil very-dark-grey country.
Starting neighbours dont stay that long the same (well at least not in the games (usually modded) i played)
(used two different colors for the country color names - almost no visible difference as you can(not) see)

...in-game.

Anything we add as in game content increases the testing time for developing the game and doesn't remove the work required for a first pass, best attempt at a good colour balance. That's a whole new feature request you have there.

but a valid feature request.. had this same thought myself for many years already asking me why can't we just ingame dynamically change colors..

Lack of user interface would be one reason. I'd rather pay a developer to make a bigger feature than a colour picker. We already run out of time to get all the features we want. Adding this takes away something else.

If it's not there at launch i'll just add it to my 2030 Mod, so either way you'll be able to do it

I've added a few options for Russia USA Cyprus and UK

I think you will find my color choices interesting but their all colors that each country shares in their flag
