that was present in warcraft 2 and yet, it was absent from warcraft 3. they should add it. the way it works is that unit icons change color based on what color the controlling player is.

No what they really should add is a manacost and cooldown to ability icons if they apply.

Because the current system is done by memory and for custom games its in description all words.
Outdated its 2019 now.

Secondly what is the point of changing icon colours?
to match the color of the unit.

This idea is weird because recolouring 2D icons would be weird. But what we do need is to be able to set the default colour of your forces - currently, it’s only blue, but I would like any.
Exactly no point. Doesnt colorblind mode do thr?
Are you against aesthetics? Because currently, we are cursed to use the blue colours for our army.
Do you think they remove rock golems? In reforged.
Also r old models going high res?
How is that again? In skirmishes you can pick any color it is you want…
No, you can either set blue or a random colour.
By the way, what is a “skirmish”?
Wow baby… What game have you been playing? Lol…
skirmish
/ˈskəːmɪʃ/
1.
an episode of irregular or unpremeditated fighting, especially between small or outlying parts of armies or fleets.
What is a skirmish in the context of WC3? I only know melee and customs. WTF is a skirmish?
It refers to the melee maps
Where you can simply choose the color you want…
I always pick gray for myself
(if you can’t see the color of your army, and you only see blue for allies and red for enemies you gotta go on the map and there will be an option that allows you to see the colours)
You can’t choose your colour in melee. In WC3, at least. Or are you talking about SC2? Like wtf?
How? Where do you choose it? Isn’t it random?
Yes you can, one sec let me turn on my laptop… Lol
So this is what I’m talking about…

If you can’t change the color in a custom map is most likely because the author of the map locked the ability and fixed the colours…
I’m talking about melee. There is no way in hell to change your colour in melee.
That is melee, the normal ones… The only one you can’t change it’s the campaign ones for obvious reasons
The pictures I sent are from a melee map
Melee = matchmaker. Custom = not matchmaker. No colour choice in melee.
