How about a selection of colors (16, maybe 32) with a button for "custom color" with the current GUI?

Or at least the colors we have signals for!

Seconded. My suggestion would be to have a pallet of standard colors, plus the ability to add custom colors to that pallet so that you can easily reuse your favorite ones.

Also, IMO color selection is more intuitive with an HSV slider rather than an RGB slider.

I would love it if you made the gui elements more open so for example mods could add or remove weapon slots and things like that.

Yes, that would be useful.

Agreed. Changing the quickbar size instead of just adding more would also be beneficial along that line.

Any chance we could get some default colour templates for locomotives and train stations? I am thinking about some basic colours for iron, copper, coal, oil, uranium?

Or trains if there are more than one.

is this in 0.14, or do I have to wait for 0.15 to use it?

It's in 0.14.

Additionally I expanded it to include support for scaling and shifting for 0.15 essentially allowing masks for icons.

So... 0.14 allows you to specify an array of icons, which can hold a tint, which are overlayed on top of each other.

0.15 adds x, y, width, height and scale to allow you to use a sprite sheets for icons, like we do now with most other sprites?

It adds scale and shift. I might add the rest of the properties.. I'll have to see if there's a reason I didn't do so.

What would be really cool is to have a simple checkbox that automatically assign a locomotive color depending on its cargo. Then just by seeing the train you actually know or suspect whats its content.

Well you know, we have this Alt-View thing...

If i mod my GUI, can i play on a vanila server ? Or do any mod direct blocking that i can play on a vanila server?

Server and client must have the same mod with the same configuration. So your gui modded must be on the server as well.

i know it but i hoped that it give any option

i take a screenshot why i will mod my gui. If you look in the right bottom corner you see that only 1/3 of all items listed. in my big storage to much items to see the full item list

@Dev`s is it possible to make any changes that we can see all items ? i cann only see the first ~ 60 items from ~160

maybe add a button on the minimap to minimize it, or something like this.

Just looking on the screenshot above: Research could be a clickable button and there's no real need to have a button for achievements on the screen (could be somewhere else under options).
The right frame could be static and nontransparent. The inventory and quickbar could be larger if you scale up the gui.

I think you're misunderstanding what this is about. You still can't modify any of the default guis, it's just about making all the custom guis have a consistent style.

If you want, there is this mod that automaticaly hide minimap when looking at logistic chest

the achievment button is ok but the tech could be in the same row as the other buttons, thats save 1 line as example

no i have understand this part ^^ but you can create a new windows with all items, but mod is no option, because i play only vanilla server.

I think it *should* be. For consistency and ease of use.

In 0.15 it is

@Klonan
is it possible that we get any option to see the full list from the logistic network on a storage chest etc. ? without any mod ^^
