    ----------x----------xx----------x----------


    [COLORBOUND] adds 635 and/or 900 new individual color options to STARBOUND that both Player Characters and NPCs can use!

    Each color palette is unique to that race and option, and are as thematically friendly as possible in terms of shades and tones, covering the full RGB spectrum.

    [COLORBOUND] is also MultiplayerFriendly™ and (stable) UpdateFriendly™! Other people will be able to see the colors of characters created with [COLORBOUND] in multiplayer, even if those people do not have [COLORBOUND] installed!

    Characters created with [COLORBOUND] colors will also retain those colors even if [COLORBOUND] is removed or stops working after an update.


    ----------x----------xx----------x----------


    [COLORBOUND] adds the new colors as follows:

    [​IMG]

    NOTE: [COLORBOUND]+635 was originally revision III of the [COLORBOUND] mod. [COLORBOUND]+900 was originally revision II of the [COLORBOUND] mod (aka [COLORBOUND+).

    [COLORBOUND]+635 and [COLORBOUND]+900 are independent of each other. You can install one or the other, or both of them.

    There is no overlap: The colors in [COLORBOUND]+635 and [COLORBOUND]+900 are different.


    ----------x----------xx----------x----------


    [COLOR OPTIONS]

    Color options are arranged by their placement in the RGB spectrum.

    After the default STARBOUND colors, the [COLORBOUND] options will cycle from red to brown to orange to yellow to green, and so on (with the colors from +635 cycling before the colors from +900 if you have both versions installed).

    This arrangement is what an RGB slider would do if one were present in the game. (It's not ideal, but there isn't a lot I can do about it.)

    Should a different color selection method ever be added, [COLORBOUND] should remain relevant as a NPC color variety modification, even if the player side of things becomes obsolete.


    ----------x----------xx----------x----------


    [DETAILED SPECIES PATCH]

    Thanks to TakasuRyuji of the Chucklefish Community Forums, [COLORBOUND] also includes an integrated compatibility patch for the DETAILED SPECIES mod.

    [​IMG]

    (http://community.playstarbound.com/resources/detailed-species.3356/).

    People who also have the DETAILED SPECIES mod installed should find that the "Apex Stripe" glitch has been fixed without having to do anything extra!

    However, people who do not have the DETAILED SPECIES mod won't see any change. [COLORBOUND] does not require the DETAILED SPECIES mod to be installed to function.

    (Note: This won't fix Apex characters created prior to installing the patched mod.)

    [INSTALLATION / UNINSTALLATION]

    To install [COLORBOUND], move the "[COLORBOUND]+X" folder(s) to your Starbound "\mods" directory.

    To uninstall [COLORBOUND], simply delete the "[COLORBOUND]+X" folder(s) from your Starbound "\mods" directory.

    Removing [COLORBOUND] after already making a character should not negatively impact your game, as the color values are stored in your character file and in the values of any NPCs that already

    exist.

    Any NPCs created after the removal should will draw from the default pool of colors when they are spawned. Any existing NPCs should retain the colors they had prior to the removal of the mod.


    ----------x----------xx----------x----------


    [COMPATIBILITY]

    [COLORBOUND] should be compatible with everything.

    Ah, Colorbound, one of the few on my "Always Install" list. And best of all, I don't have to pester my friends into downloading it just so they can benefit from my having the exact shade of [insert color here] for my characters. :D

    Only way it'd be any better is if Starbound had a color system more complex than "forward/back", and that probably isn't happening any time soon. Ah, well!

      If it had a color system more complex than "forward/back", [COLORBOUND] would become mostly obsolete, and I would welcome that day.

      In the interim, even just NUMBERS on the selections would be great.

      Anyway, thanks for the kind words!

    I love this mod, it gives me the ability to make a very unique looking floran with so many colours to choose from. I hope you add even more colours! If not, that's okay, I am very happy with this mod and I think it deserves the highest possible rating, thank you for making this and sharing it with us !

      Thank you! Honestly, though, without a better GUI for color selection, 「COLORBOUND」has pretty much gone as far as it can go without descending into million-click-selection hell.

    It makes StarBound beautiful
    Quite literally.
