Pure idle speculation here.
The ability to have color sliders for the ui AND having the ui change colors for each ship put to large a load on the server/client.

Another thought, the additional data storage for every ship in the game was more than they were willing to dedicate to a UI task.

If any of this is true I would rather have limited color options and the ability to change color schemes based on the ship I am flying.


It would but I'm not asking for the ability to customise, mix and match colours across all assets in the game. If the user clicks "Match theme to active ship" then the theme is matched to the active ship. If he selects one of the themes than that theme is the one that's used. If he clicks "Advanced" (which doesn't exist right now), he gets to choose his own primary and secondary colours. If it makes his UI look terrible then that's his look out. Nobody else has to look at his screen. Not even CCP Arrow.
