An Accessibility Question

Post by Spiral_Banzai »

In a stations "plan build" menu there is a section involving the amount of materials needed for the construction. There are little blue bars showing how much materials have been provided and how much is needed. There are also numbers in the bars with provided materials being in red and the total needed being in white. I can't read the red numbers. I noticed that the game has color blind settings, however I am unaware of which thing I would need to change to make the red numbers white. Can anyone provide me with this information?

That appears to be "text_negative". But if you can't read red text, I suppose you might as well change all of the entries that call themselves "text" and are using a red colour, as there are quite a few.

Thankyou for the information. While I do have some issues with red lettering, only the red numbers within the background of the blue bar were completely illegible to me.

Is there anywhere online where there is a reference table to what each option corresponds to?
I am particularly interested in the target reticle and aiming system.

Not that I'm aware of. I've gone through and customised my UI colours a fair bit to make them more comfortable and essentially I'd look at the name of the thing, look at the colour it used, and make a somewhat informed guess what it was. Then change it to a really obvious colour and see if I was right. Once I figured out the thing I was looking for I'd then change it to the actual desired colour.

The most tedious part of this is having to wait for the game to restart each time.

Yes I agree, that is why I was hoping there was some reference guide.
