Please can we have a colorblind mode for those of us who have trouble with this. Maybe it's not a priority but it would be helpful.

Where exactly is it causing trouble?

I have protanomaly, but to the best of my knowledge, I've never had problems in Eve (or any other game).

I have deuteranomaly. Accidentally pasted the different kinds in the text box and clicked post. Anyway...I have some trouble with wardec targets and corp mates (were it not for the flashing indicator on Wardec targets I would never know the difference). Also my blue and purple is bad...and the red and orange and yellow. We all know what yellow boxing is right? To me it is Orange boxing. You haven't had any problems? Then you are very lucky...I on the other hand, have had many problems. Interesting fact...many games have a colorblind mode. I did not post this here so that my "colorblindness" could be compared to somebody else's. Another interesting fact...technically we are not colorblind...we are color deficient, it's a disease. I wouldn't waste my time posting a thread if i didn't have an issue. Everybody's experience in EVE is different.

couldn't you change the color settings of the screen via the driver settings or the screen itself and it would be fixed for all programs? I am not color blind myself so i don't know if this would work.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

The background colors of all overview items can be edited in overview settings. It would be nice if everything on the HUD could have it's color edited though.
