#Paint pipes should show more of the color

Ever since the update, I have found myself needing to really zoom in to see what color of paint is in the pipe. If you look at the graphics, you have an outer pipe (with reflections), inner pipes (also with reflections), and a small orb of paint with black nobs on either end. The pipe graphics end up being 85% generic glass for any color, and a bit of the color itself. I was trying really hard to figure out why my shapes were not being counted only to realize the ink was grey, not white.

Maybe make the inner containers more shaped like capsules so that the color of the pipe is clear even when zoomed out.

Is this in reference to space pipes or in reference to the platform pipes?

I'm guessing space pipes because platform pipes are easy to distinguish (except for grey and black)

Here is what I mean:

#

At a certain zoom level, there's barely anything in the tube that is colored like the paint. Side by side and with globes not moving, it's easier to see but if you have a pipe that's half saturated with globes flying through, good luck figuring out if it's white or grey.

#

If the containers were shaped like a medication capsule, or mini glass barrels, it would show more of the color.

Like this, sorta, but capped at both ends
