    Sometimes when I'm playing I'll be looking at the building construction menu and just get completely lost as there's no real distinction between the buildings. I think the tabs are nice, but I want to be able to glance at all the buildings at once easily and not go hunting for the grey building amongst grey buildings.

    Green: Econ
    Blue: Factories
    Yellow: Defense
    Red: Strategic

    Good idea, I'm sure it's easily moddable.

    Nice idea. This could probably be pretty easily modded too.

    Could even do color intensity differences to highlight between T1/T2.

    I thought about doing that, but it got lost in all the other mods I'm making.

    A mod would allow tons of flexibility. You could use your configuration, or you could make metal blue, energy yellow, factories grey, t2 factories red, etc. Anything is possible with mods.

    Watch a mod come out that dictates this. When you see it, there should be a little tear in your eye, because you were the founder. Have a great day man! ;)
