That can be accomodated by modding as well. I am mostly depressed that my nicely colored laser rifles look brown when made from copper :D.
Ah yeah, the weapons. Yeah, it might be best if they are mostly using white as ingame color, so that the sprites retain their original color. Or at least keep a secondary color, like brown/wood for the handles.

And now that's convincing enough. Let's say weapons can be painted so it doesn't matter what material they're made of:)

Idk I'd like very much to be able to have different colors for materials it'd really help for bars if it could work for weapons ;D.

Don't bars currently have colours based on their material?
Anyway, we were talking about overriding tile colour with a specific different colour, not about overrides based on tile material (what you want as I understand).

The only argument I could think of for specific color overrides is the fact that things like barrels, metal doors and things use background and foreground colors in a fucked up order that doesn't jive with how most things do.

Version 5.24 has support for overriding tile colours. Please see readme for details.
Interesting

UPD:
Quote
Note: Any of NewTile, NewFg and NewBg parameters may be empty to use existing values without changes, but at least on of them must be present.
guess it's a typo

basic question here: so if i want to code new override as described in readme, without colour change, i should type it according to syntax
[OVERRIDE:Tile:Kind:Id:Type:Subtype:Tileset:NewTile::], with two : at end, right?

Sure a typo, thanks.
Of course you can omit trailing colons, so all existing overrides continue to work. I'll clarify this in readme.

Hum, i got a little problem when i updated TWBT. I hope it's not another stupid mistakes on my part. But now when i go in-game all the tiles from TWBT are black. I tried adding the :: at the end of overides, but they are still black. Everything works fine with 5.23.

Can you possibly include a third option/twbt mode which is twbt next gen with the old gen map overlay until you work on the map?

I just had a cool idea. It will require quite a bit of dedication, but we could modify raws a bit and then make appropriate engravings as pictures!

A quick mock-up:

You think that the engraving can be identified? They can show anything in the descriptor file, plus an unlimited amount of procedually generated history.
