Colored lasers? Where?
So I recall hearing supposedly that we were supposed to be able to cosmetically color our lasers to help add some variety. Did that just get passed over this update or what? If not, where?

It's not cosmetics, those colored lasers are modded engineer weapons

Which effects produce what color? Has anyone figured it out? I know the "regen" lasers are greenish from the beta screenshots.

originally - i was just kidding(ironically/sacrastically), but if you fit you ship with Different properties and thus coloring in each of you lazors - you got perfectly/nearly same effect of rainbow fireworks. and for "ranbow"/"friendship" drives - can be too, but since you playing game mostly in FPS, its would wait for multi-crew DLC(2.3 ?) and further VR improvements i guess and especially until FPS introduction, spacewalking and station interiors(and missions, violence, NPC, real estate and etc), that expected to be introduced in 2.4 or 2.5 DLC's.

That's a powerplay reward. Not engineer modification.

Unless they suddenly put it as a random proc effect.

It's an engineer modification now as well, "Scramble Spectrum".

Oh interesting, so what's each modification called that's been discovered so far and what do they look like? I haven't seen a comprehensive list for those of us just wanting to pimp out our ships over here or on Frontier.

I don't know what they all look like, but here's all the weapon special effects.
