Why Am I Always Blue?

[raingoon]

Why is my Civ's color ALWAYS blue? Am I missing something? How can I change this -- blue is the most difficult outline to read in the little world view window.

Please give me a prescription for the blues -- my computer won't take prozac.

you're always blue, or whatever color you set in colors00.txt(gamedata folder)

Ah, thank'ee Markos. Guess I'll have to start tinkering -- I never did much of that. But this game is turning out to be a lot of fun.

INTERESTING -- checking out my Colors00.txt file and I'm not really familiar at all with this sort of thing, but I'm curious. First off, I still don't understand. Can anybody tell me more specifically what exactly do I set in the Colors00.txt file to change my color from blue to red? And second, it seems to me there are different colors for potentially 16 different civs in this game. That true?

check the "player 1" line
that's yours(i think, see which one is the blue)....

actually, the colors should be for 32 civs(since this is the max the engine can take)
