Option to change healthbar colors

RTS games can be really hard to play and watch. New players are often confused and have no clue what is happening.
By giving us options to color our own, allies and enemy healthbars by whatever color we want, it will make the game easier to spectate as well as easier to get into.
Enabling this would override the possibility of healthbar changing color depending on unit’s health, obviously.

Warcraft 3 Reforged could learn a couple of things from its sister subgenre.
This is one of them. Dota, HotS, LoL, HoN etc. all have this option for a reason.
Of course default will be “classic” which is the way it is now.

For games with multiple enemies, possibility of picking healthbar colors for all of them in the options would be nice (pink, yellow, blue etc.)

Each player has their own color and unit’s have armor parts that reflect it, but in the heat of battle, this can be very tough to notice.

The more people play this wonderful game, the merrier :blush:

Agreed. This would be useful.

i suppose it could be useful.

Seems like a valid option to me.

If they really wanted, they could even have another option (on top of red for enemies, green for you) where the health bar is shown in team colour.

yes I was thinking this as well.
Dota 2 does this for custom games. But it would be nice to have option to change those colors too.

I agree completely, i totally want this too.
