Thanks for making this; reminds me so much of the Elite Dangerous UI color forum threads that people shared.
Would you be willing to reupload this as a loosely packed version for people to share their color preferences in comments without having to extract the mod?
I really like the colors you chose! It is really similar to the UI color profiles I had in Elite Dangerous nearly a decade ago; so it makes me feel really at home.
Thanks! I'm excited to see what kind of funky color profiles people will think of.
Here is a list of colors in stock colors.xml if anyone wants to play around with it. So for example if you want to edit extensions\recolouring_ui\libraries\colors.xml
This mod does not change colourblind options, download the unpacked files, change mod colour in recolouring_ui\libraries\colors.xml. And do not forget to change "Azure" into "Orange" in colourblind options, too. Now you can get a complete orange ui.

Your wish is my command... just uploaded and should be there after Nexus virus check within minutes.

<replace sel='/colormap/mappings/mapping[@id="targetsystem_collectible"]/@ref'>green_dark_weak_glow</replace>
Replace 'green_dark_weak_glow' with one of the colors below like 'red_very_dark_glow' for example.
