I think it looks ok how it is though. I mean with the flag if I made one big one I think that would make it less unique. Unless I am missing something majorly wrong with it that I did not see. All I saw was the waving looks maybe a little odd, but I think it still looks ok for a flag.
Actually the flag looks great when zoomed in... its at the default height and higher that it has a strange "holey" visual effect for me... though perhaps I have a lower graphical setting than you do and yours has clearly defined "dots" instead of holes.
If it was bigger and one maybe should not have the shield at all in it, and just the dots. Then would just use a blue flag with a white color for the dots.
That could work out well...
And the king I thought to leave the button left white. Because if using blue I would wonder if about maybe confusion with France. I really wanted to fix the problem we should make unique buttons for each king perhaps.
I'd be fine with that... I've already added the file for Portugal's sake so I don't mind additional editing, especially since this mod will probably be the building block for future mods.
So anyway I think this is best combination at the moment anyway.
Yeah, although I did change the Portuguese Europe's default primary to white and secondary to Black so that their flag has the same look as all the kings other kings. However if you decide to make uniue buttons for the kings, then these can of course change
Are you thinking about making anymore civs?
The only other civs I might consider making would be the Swedes and Russians, but the Swedes weren't a big player in the colonization of the Americas and the Russians got involved with America pretty late in the game. Still if there was interest in these I might add them.
Oh and another idea. The English colony colors could be swapped and the colors inverted on the flag. So that the flag stays the same an the colonies have red culture border. Might remove confusion with the white button. Portugal could even have white culture borders then as well. What do you think?
That would work for me
So in short for Portugal:
Let's make Portugal's primary color blue with white as the secondary.
The Unit flag should be blue background with five white dots in it.
For England:
You can change their primary color to red with white if you'd like.
Other Nations:
If you get struck by inspiration in regards to the other nations feel free to change them too.
