I have a subject to bring up that will hopefully get the Dev's attention. A while ago, WindSplitter made a post about animal colors. It didnt get much attention, but hopefully this ine will. I think we should have more color options for our pets. I think the customazation screen should have these options:
1) Base Color
2) Marking Color
3) A Marking Pattern slider. This would be like the one in character customization. You slide the bar and you get different patter options
4) Eye color
Any ideas would be appreciated, and hopefully the Devs will catch wind of this.

Not sure how feasible this would be. It's basically a task for the art department. Patterns and colors are hard coded into each specific model. In order to get more color options they would have to be added to the models. Same with patterns, there is no pattern option because most creature models don't have pattern variations.

Btw, not saying it isn't possible, but it sounds like a big project. Would this warrant being prioritized over fixing the problems with cloning, or adding more variety to the tissue line?

I'd be happy if the colors we do have actual stuck with all the critters. Its disheartening to color some of the animals like kima a nice orange only to have it turn grey when its tamed.

Good point. Bug fixes in other places definetly take president over this. But, you gotta admit it'd be pretty cool.
