[Suggestion] Add Colour Blind options
For all the colour blind people out there like me. This is not related to the HUD Colours at all.
I can see about 3 of the colours out of the 8. Sometimes I have to take my time to figure out where the hell i am on the map because I get a colour that I just cant see against the green background.
Please add a colour blind setting for us

OldManKru MergedI have a colorblind friend who has for now -since he is green/red colorblind- only problems with picking out berry bushes.
I think it would be nice, if there was an option "Colorblind berries" or something, to change the red of the berry bushes to blue and maybe also the item in the inventory. -

Dustin B MergedI'm slightly colorblind as well, and I struggle with how the berry bushes are not very distinctive from the "ferns" (which aren't ferns) and other shrubs and bushes. There are only two shapes (bushes and ground shrubs), and the berry bushes and "ferns" share the same shape/size/pattern except for a splash of red. Maybe it's intended, but I'd like to see some other visual distinctiveness between the two resources.

Mike MergedWe need colourblind options. It’s a green and brown map with red icons… I literally can’t see anything. It’s a huge issue for me.

Aron MergedA buddy of mine is red/green color blind, and during our last session, he wasn't able to see the difference between green, yellow-green and yellow building strength hints.

Wyatt Billingsley MergedSome of us are not able to see our location markers on the map at all due to them blending in with the terrain. I suggest the ability to select our own marker color so we can find a color that works best for us to see our location arrow and name on the map.

Rogbait MergedSuggest the ability to select color for each (or at least self) player arrow when viewing the map.

Snoochy42 Mergedi highly agree with this. Having an option for the berries being Blue would benefit us colorblind people ALOT. I've been having to find the berry bushes based on general shape and size of the bush instead of looking for the actual berries.

Typojoe MergedYah please let us alter the color of that arrow and the circles for points of interest. These are really hard to see as red :/

Paul MergedI am red green color blind, and the red indicator is killing me for the map. Also, can you add on a feature to easily see other players?
I friggin love this game. Thank you all for this game! What a gift! -

Jay MergedPlease give the ability to change the player location markers on the map. It always starts the host off with Red. As I am colourblind I cannot see the red on the green map. I have to change map settings to see my character. Or allow us to change the colour of our player marker

KelAhod Mergedyeah, my brother has the same issue and it is hindering him in getting a really good expression from the game, so pls give us an option to get
a color blind modus.
Thx for all your hard work :) -

Slaw MergedWe really shouldn't even have to suggest this. Having ability to changed display features for Color Blind players should come standard with any game.

Deano MergedThe red player colour on the map is absolutely impossible to see for most people who are colour-blind. I cannot use the map for this reason. I just cannot see myself when my icon & name is red. Maybe change the icon colour to suit the map environment.
Change the red to white or very bright yellow, something that is visible to people with this disability.
Seriously it spoils the game play for me and i guess many more too. -

ScarlettHellion MergedI would love to be able to pick an order of preference color wheel. IE: red (my name is scarlett, it just makes sense for me, sorry OP), then maybe green, blue, yellow, pink, etc. if I join and there already exists a red player, move me down to blue, etc etc. Alternatively, selecting a color from a list, and it greys it out if it has already been picked by another character.

Jerry MergedAllow player to select Color of his player marker as red on green for players that are Color blind make it extremely difficult to see on map. At least make the first player's Color blue as this would help in single player game.

Bill Beavers MergedAs a color blind person, the green areas on the map clash harshly with my red player indicator on the map view. I can hardly find my location based on the arrow because it is red and clashes with the map background. I would enjoy the game so much more if I could make it a color of my choosing, or at least a set of vibrant colors to offset this issue. For me a bright yellow, or even pale blue would be helpful against the map background. A user selection would be ideal.

{ Is it possible to change the player marker on the map with another color ? i have a really hard time finding where i am on the map since im colorblind.}
Personally, I assume that this will not be difficult to do. -

DonovanThis is definitely needed. If I get a red player marker on the map I literally will not be able to see it especially on green maps. Also especially notable is the tracks or marks you have to examine for the extermination mission were impossible for me to see being bloody red on green or brown ground, some kind of highlight feature or something would help me so much.
