ColorBlind Mode

My friend recently reminded me of this game, and we reminisced about playing this game back in middle school.  It's still a pretty awesome game and I want to get back into it, however I have a slight problem.  I'm a very creatve person and also happen to be colorblind.  As such I have a difficult time correctly selecting blocks.  This could be fixed partially by adding a "select placed block" function, probably assigned to middle click.  However more in-depth tooltips would be ideal, perhaps with a quick description of the block, not just the ID number.

I don't spent much time on the forums.  I'd rather play the game.

Re: ColorBlind Mode

If you hold one the quick slot keys (1-0) while clicking a placed block, that slot is replaced with the block you clicked.

Re: ColorBlind Mode

I assume by tooltips you mean these that appear when you hover over a block in selector. What exactly would you like to see here?

Re: ColorBlind Mode

Maybe the name of the block or a tiny description.

Precisely.  Something like "Basic:Red" or "Brick:Light Blue"  Maybe just the color, as that would also help immensly
