People colored orange are of the opposite alignment to you. It's simple enough to tell from there.

If you can't find the patch notes because they got buried, check the Wiki: http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Issue_18

# Search Color Coded * Jade green: Same team as you * Red: They have 'not looking for group' set * Yellow: They can't be invited to team with you because they're on a mission map or in an arena match * Orange: They're the opposite faction to you and not on a mixed team, so you have to go to their map to team with them * Violet: They're the leader of a team with less than 8 people on it * Pale blue: They're not on a team and you can invite them * Green/grey: They're on a team but not the leader, so you can't invite them and they can't invite you |
Interesting... I haven't been in this crowd since around issue 5 so I'm still getting back into the swing of things. Thank you for the information.

The colours system really wasn't done well.

Well, simple once you memorize the color coding. Having a cheat sheet would be nice.

Unfortunately, the color coding scheme has a fatal flaw: teams inside of missions tend to have their normal colors overridden by the "in a mission", even the leaders. Makes asking a team's leader if they have room a bit complex, unless you search while they're outside of a mission.
I won't comment on the tips system just at this moment but I will say this.
The search feature needs to have some way of displaying what alignment people are.
I would suggest adding a simple icon row that indicates what each particular person is (Hero, vigilante, rogue, villain).
Currently.... I can't tell who can go where and I have no way of telling i someone is even able to join my team before asking them and then feeling like a ******* because they're unable to come to where my team is.
