A small colorblind helper for WarEra
I saw the article asking for a colorblind-friendly mode. I created a small script that helped me at least. It adds a tiny letter in the corner of every item tile telling you the rarity. C, U, R, E, L, M (common - mythic)
Install
You need a browser extension called Tampermonkey. It runs small JavaScript files on specific sites. Free, open source, used by millions.
Install Tampermonkey for your browser:
Click Add or Install.
Install the script:
Before installing the script, I highly recommend you to look through the code, or ask your favorite AI of choice to look through it for you. You can find the source code here.
Once that is done, you can click the "Raw" button on that page, or click this link.
Tampermonkey will pop up a window asking if you want to install the script. Click Install. Close that tab.
Reload the page
Refresh the page. The letter badges should appear right away. If they don't, click the Tampermonkey icon and check that the script is enabled.
What it actually does
Every item image in the game has an alt attribute that already tells the browser what the item is (helmet1, pants3, sniper, case2, that sort of thing). The script reads that, figures out the rarity, and drops a small colored badge in the corner with the rarity letter on it.
Works on inventory, market listings, shops, equipment screens, anywhere the game shows an item image.
Caveats
I tested it on the pages I use. If you find a place the badge doesn't show up, drop a comment with the URL and I'll take a look. The detection is image-based, so it should follow the item images everywhere they appear, but the game's UI is big and I haven't seen all of it.
