Colorblind mod

Description
Changes the background colour of the units and makes the color difference between cores and claims more apparent.
It also improves the contrast on the morale bars.

THIS MOD DOES NOT CHANGE THE CHECKSUM
SO IRON MAN + MULTIPLAYER STILL WORK

A small mod that hopefully makes things easier to distinguish.

If you have a hard time distinguishing between you and your enemy, this mod changes the textures a little bit to make things more obvious.

This mod changes the background color of the units from:
You - Normal Green to Brighter Green
Enemies - Normal Red to Darker Red (with small flames on the side)
Allies - Normal Blue to Brighter Blue
Neutral - Normal Gray to Darker Gray (Almost Black)
Condottieri - Normal Yellow to Brighter Yellow

Hopefully this helps you as much as it helps me.

Changed files are, all in gfx/interface/:
unit_battle_relation.dds
unit_panel_relation.dds
small_shield_overlay.dds

Morale bar and war overview progress bar improvements:
unitpanel_moralebar_1.dds
unitpanel_moralebar_5.dds
unitpanel_moralebar_6.dds
unitpanel_moralebar_7.dds
unitpanel_moralebar_9.dds
unitpanel_moralebar_11.dds
war_overview_progressbar_w288_h18_green.dds

@Meowscar All file changes should still be good.

does it still work

@Tigranes The idea of this mod is to increase the contrast of the indicating colors to ensure you can see the game in case you are suffering from colorblindness. Something being "more comforting" to the eyes is the exact opposite of what this mod tries to achieve. White text on a black background is the higher contrast, and as such an improvement for visually impaired people.

Is there any way to make gray less black? Almost black is not a neutral color by definition, but more like worse than red enemy/rebels/pirates. And it is more comforting to the eyes.

For those who use other shield mods I recommend removing small_shield_overlay.dds since it draws weird for some mods. Everything else on this mod works with shield mods! Happy playing!

Really like the new changes, thanks for this!

I've made some additional changes so that the morale bars are more visible. Hope this helps 🙂

Great mod. Devs should have done something like that a long time ago.
