    I thought it might be cool to have the turret change colour based on what rarity the weapon present is. The turret is normally grey so I thought it looked boring and a bit out of place _20171102_122124.JPG

    I think the problem is that people could see that, so if they see yellow they either gonna target you or run away lol. Same if they see grey/green, they'll target you.
    I think people like the element of surprise so this would probably be quite unpopular.
    Would look cool though. Good idea:)

    Of course, you could see that that person is dropping common mines and you could just step over them.

    mines should keep the same color. I think the color diference should be more suttle than the picture, so you have to get closer to the ship to see it.

    Maybe if it's t1 the color would be really light and faded, but as it gets to higher tiers it would get darker and less faded

    I like this idea because it rewards observant players more than idiots that just go pew pew pew
    @The Grim Repair ?

    I thought about this earlier today actually. Good idea; but maybe it should only visible to friendly ships! That way they know what you’re working with. Could be beneficial.

    Again, good idea! I like where your head is at.

    We have actually tested this out earlier and decided not to spend time on it because on a small mobile screen it was practically impossible to see those colors on any other ship than on your own which is closest to the camera. We might revisit this idea in the future but currently it sits in the "Cool idea but didn't work out that well in practice" pile.

    See, I wouldn’t have thought about it like that. But I totally get it.

    I presume it's attached via neck to the body :)

    Nice idea. Would be really cool actually. Besides the speeders running away from golden turrets though!
