Colour the different tier stations

[winged folio]

Would like to see some different colour stations to identify levels

What would be a use case for this? In my experience, a settlement usually contains but a single active and a handful passive stations of each type. If you are planning to work in the settlement, you just check their levels once and then remember them. Or press "U" button and see all the levels at once.

Besides, stations are already colour-coded by professions, so with this suggestion it can potentially become a colourful mess.

I remember in the past they'd look different based on tiers, not just a different color but a different model too. I'd like that to be back

This is to indicate which Tier the smelter is as settlements tend to keep there old tier smelters so a tinge of green for tier 3 over tier 2 would be nice easy fix

works for active craft stations too. we keep them and its super useful, you can dump a craft in them for later and different tiers. works like a charm, would be awesome to know which is which

Also, just to make higher tier buildings feel like an upgrade. I mean, ideally they have cooler and cooler models (or even options of models) to make settlements look more like… well, settlements.

I think that will come with a generous hexite charge to your credit card

I agree, different models for different station tiers would be fun. (I don't think colour is the way to do this, though.)

I don't think they should be colour coded, but since they all have flags, maybe the flags should show the tier with distinct markings/Roman numerals

That would be more simple than making entirely new models for higher tiers (though I think they should do this eventually anyway)
