It would be nice to have slightly different colour for cargo, when displayed on scanner. Dark grey, maybe.
What do you think?

Re: Slightly different cargo colour
I already can't remember all the colours..
(In my defence, I do have one or two OXPs which add/change colours already )

Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied

Starjellies have a grey scanner flag - you wouldn't want to try and scoop one of them!

Two thoughts (or rather questions): Different from what? and: For what reason?SubV wrote:It would be nice to have slightly different colour for cargo, when displayed on scanner. Dark grey, maybe.

Cargo pods have the same scanner colour as the other scoopable items (splinters, escape pods, and disabled Thargons) and as everything that will produce scoopable items when shot (derelict ships, asteroids, and boulders). That seems perfectly logical to me. I can see no reason why only one item in this group (cargopods) should be taken out of this group by a different colour. Hence my questions.
