Train wagon re-coloring

Post by crelling »

I would love to see some feature for re-coloring the train wagons (both cargo and tank). I utilize the recoloring feature for my locomotives all the time to color-code them depending on their purpuse. It would be lovely if I could do the same with my wagons. This would give it a more complete aesthetic, and would also allow me to have wagons placed around my stations that would be easy to recognise whenever they dont have an attached locomotive

PS: I just saw that the first is only for 0.14. Should be easy to fix...
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

Coloring wagons should be a feature in base.

I just finished porting parts of Mooncats ColorPicker to 0.17 to copy colors from locomotives to cargo-wagon and fluid-wagon.

The color mask for fluid wagons could really benefit from being done from the original 3d model.
So far I have not even seen a mask for artillery wagons.
