Hangar font color.

Can we get a different color for the text in the hangar? White letters on white concrete isn't exactly easy to read.

Oh yes please!
Most of the time I have to go to graphic options, enable shadows and disable them again, just to be able to read my loadout endurance info.  :bhead

I put that exact request on chat while Hitech was in the game yesterday.

Then he shot my bomber hunting 410 down in his P38, using cheat codes I bet.  :)

Hey he's Santa any other time and has to visit 262,144 square miles of arena to HoHoHo everyone in 30 minutes. I'll bet he has access to a bit more in game than we do as the Administrator El Grandee. Better him than me...... :lol

Was going to say something about the color text  in the hanger myself. Good idea to make it a color you can see all the time. +1

Some of us can't see red text. I noticed the hanger text change to red in the release and couldn't read the text any more.

Maybe white outlined in black or the inverse would be best for multiple light conditions.

I wonder if it would just be easier to make the floor color text a changeable option like it is for icons.

Probably the best option. +1  for the color blind (both natural and moonshine induced).

Red and green are the most common forms of color blindness. 

Best solution would be to make it a player controlled option as others have already suggested
The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

I don't know what you guys are talking about? My hangar floor is a medium gray with yellow text!
