    Colourblind Options

    Hello!

    I know this isnt a world first problem and Im not really expecting any result but my recent adventures into the Deep Dungeon has brought up a problem with traps!

    Due to their red-ish colouring I find it almost impossible to see them when they have been revealed which usually results in me running straight over them and today, almost killing my group!

    I know red signifies danger but a different colour on the trap or an option to change the colour for people with colourblindness would be appreciated... this also stands true for telegraphs and also the quest highlighting circles on maps, their orangey, redness makes it almost impossible to see...changing my brightness, contrast and my playing environment does nothing to help this problem!

    I know that WoW had some colourblind options that helped with equipment etc which helped...other than glueing myself to the walls in DD Im not sure what else to try /sadface

Es gab einige Berichte von Spielern, die farbenblind sind, dass sie Probleme haben die offenbarten Fallen im Palast der Toten zu sehen. Wir werden daran arbeiten und euch auf dem Laufenden halten sobald es Neuigkeiten dazu gibt!

    Personally wish they would also implement the changes to the color red to a sort of color blind tab in the system config.

    Its much harder to see alternatives to red, like the changes to AoEs, than it used to be.

    It was a bit hard to see the red marks, and I'd imagine a change to them would make them harder to see.
    (Not suggesting they dont make a fix for you, but rather an option to toggle like some MMOs do)
