Make coal highligh a different color

Post by DragonMudd »

TL;DR
When a miner over coal has a wire attached, and you mouse over it, the change from dark grey to darker grey is almost impossible to see. I suggest making it some light color instead of a dark color to show better contrast.

What ?
I only just recently started playing around with circuit signals from miners but had no idea that you could see all of the included resources when you mouse over the wired miner. Part of the reason was I started with coal. That difference is nearly impossible to see.

Why ?
Would drastically improve visualization.

This would actually help quite a bit, for what I assume is a relatively easy change to make.

P.S.
DragonMudd, if you're posting screenshots, it helps a lot if they don't have a bunch of clutter all over the place. It took me like, 2 minutes to see which part of the copper screenshots you were talking about. Just the relevant ore-patches, an no machines or robots everywhere. ^^;
