📋 About This Mod
Initially this started as a proof of concept on my own to try to distinguish the colors of units (because i did not like the way your
clan colors match automatically your kingdom ones). Hence the mod name.
this mod will allow to:
- change colors of any clan or units in game (without changing the clan banner nor the kingdom colors)
- override the banners of kingdoms and clans, or their primary or secondary colors
- each unit color can be set to be randomized (from all the colors of the game palette, or specify your own palette)
- you can customize the primary and secondary colors independantly, and
randomize them; You can configure your colors to be randomized among a
set of color pair (one primary and one secondary) to link them together.
- you can override any unit type or companion with its own banner: this will not change the banner of the clan.
NEW IN VERSION 1. 1. 0:
new feature allow to specify new criteria to apply colors within units sections.
Whenever you define a unit wildcard definition under any "units" section, you can specify the following subsections:
- cultures
- tiers
- types
- cultures.tiers
- cultures.types
- tiers.types
- cultures.tiers.types
To further customize your troops colors based on unit's culture, tier or type.
cultures sections will allow to define a list of culture and their config; cultures section can contain standard colors config, and/or tiers section or types sections.
tiers sections will allow to define a config based on tier number. tiers sections can contain standard colors config and/or types sections.
types sections can contain a config specifically for a unit type. The defined types can be any of the following types:
- "Ranged": match all ranged units
- "Melee": match all melee units
- [color=#ffff
