[DONE in 3.3.7-dev] Different color circle around friendly/co-op units

[tomreyn]

Currently, when you click/activate one of your units, you will see a green circle around the unit. Equally, when you select an enemy unit, a red circle will show around it. Other than for red-green blind people, that's good as it is in my opinion.

However, when you play cooperatively with other players, it would be nice if their units, when selected by you, would have a different color circle around them than the enemy. Currently, this circle will be red, but I find this non-intuitive. I suggest to change the color of the circle drawn around selected friendly units to yellow.

yellow would be hard to see on certain tilesets (mostly ones with lots of light green), let's go with blue - it would look better.

Yes, blue is very nice.  Except it would have to have an outline when crossing some rivers.

howabout a dark blue?

I just wanted to mention that it is very good idea ! I will try to do this.

[Zoythrus]

what color will you be going with?

[titi]

I think dark colors are not a good idea, because its darkened to mark its heal state.
Yellow or orange is a good option or not?
Maybe a very light blue? I'm not very decided here.

Update: We decided to make it yellow .  (Its already done.)

It looks really ok in the spring tileset, or what do you mean?

I just saw it working today, that's really nice, and has already helped me distinguishing what's my and what's other players' units, and who is friend and who is foe. Thanks!

Hmm, it was there already? Must have missed it like usual...I'll guess I'll try to look for it tomorrow.
Cool.
