In the Classic Massive Map (I know there are a few others) we have a variety of colours and shapes to help us identify the different players. Would it be possible to have these shapes all maps. When playing a map with more teams it is so much easier to distinguish the different players/teams not only by colour, but also by shapes.
Thanks for considering :)

It's possible, it's just quite a lot of work. Also, there is an upper limit to the amount of containers we can add to each map - otherwise the map loading slows way down. I agree though that it would be really nice to have more options available.

I have the same issue on some maps. Only larger team games are affected. Colors on some maps are too similar. Before I start a game I always change colors. In a team game I like to dedicate one color for each team. I also like the color shapes and maps with ie. enemy red, target red, red1, red2, red3 etc. Or the one with the fish and turtle and the new one with the star on it. It's much easier to see who's who. Obviously in a crusade game it would be hard to have 12 different reds or greens. In this case I do two colors per team (or three if there's not enough).
But having 6 different for the regular colors would be great.
I can deal with what we have, just a thought.
Thanks Master
