My three friends and I are playing through the campaign together right now, but one of them is red-green colourblind and he's really suffering due to the enemy outlines being red, allied outlines being green and fire on the ground making it hard to see enemies at all. On top of it all, he's playing The Red Prince and can't change his skin colour to be more visible on fire, poison or grass environments (I understand the lore reason for this of course though).He's accidentally attacked allied NPCs a couple of times and I can tell he's a bit bummed out by what he's experiencing.

I went through the settings and was shocked to see none related to colourblind mode support, and even further surprised to be unable to find any mods supporting it. It doesn't look like it's possible to change the colour of enemy/ally outlines when they are enabled. In my searching I found a lot of threads from other players asking for colourblind mode so it's very strange that basic tools in support of this common type of colourblindness have yet to be released.

Thank you.

We did look into adding support for colour blind palettes for D:OS 2, either 3 preset modes to cover the 3 main types of colour blindness, or fully customizable colours, but even just the 3 presets would have been a considerable amount of work, and between game updates and other projects starting it didn't happen.
