GPP Orbit Color Fixer


EndIris

Recommended Posts

After downloading GPP for the first time, I loved the planets and hated the orbits. Seriously, why is Thalia's orbit blue?!?

But anyway, I wrote up a quick config to change the colors. It also changes GEP, even though those colors were pretty good anyway. Just delete that if you don't want it.

Copy paste the following into a MM config somewhere in your GameData folder.

(edit)  I just posted this to be funny.  I'm not criticizing.  I appreciate what you've done.

Contrasting colors were used to help differentiate the many bodies in the tracking station, but to each his own!

To expand: The stock game can get away with the orbit lines matching the planet themselves because each planet is very distinct and vibrant (and there’s only 16 bodies). GPP, however, is very desaturated and with a lot of browns and greys, so many bodies are very similar in color. So to combat that, we chose different colors for each body, not necessarily based on the planet color at all. Some worked out that way, though. 

Either way, thanks for putting this together for those that don’t mind the parity in orbit colors.

 

FWIW, I’m also red-green colorblind, so I have always appreciated the more vibrant, differing colors that are presently in GPP lol
