Does that make you a Stone tanker, then ... ?

I am not required to.

I propose a test. You become protanopic and try to colour a character in eight specific shades of red, green and brown. We can compare notes after that.

Well, there you are.

Disclaimer: Your point may not be my point.

I have to counter your assertion there, speaking as a colourblind person. Having something like this, where one can see the RGB values, is immensely useful to someone wanting to paint a character in a specific colour that he is otherwise unable to see correctly. At present, my option is to take a colour that would seem to work, take a snippet of it, check it against a hex colour database and then try to apply it to the nearest match on the current grids. Using the labeled grids from the wiki does shorten the work a little, but it is still a long and drawn-out process for someone of my ilk.

When you think about it, RGB layout mechanics are very rarely proprietary, and one will find the same mechanic duplicated among multiple programmes and apps. Even if we don't have the exact same "button", it would be nice to have such a mechanic available to us. My original post was not a Homecoming-vs.-Rebirth comparison, but more of a "I found a neat thing, and I think we might like to have something like it, too" thing. I realise that it may not be on a roadmap for the game at present, but it could serve as an entry on a "nice to have" list somewhere.

So, it appears that Rebirth will have an RGB colour palette for costume customisation. I think such a thing would be very welcome here. Full Spectrum Costuming coming to City of Heroes Rebirth, Issue 7: The Coming Storm
