Pessimist:
It's related to Paragon Rewards, certainly. Not that it *should* have anything to do with the UI code, but the devs and decoupling don't mix.
Optimist:
Something broke; don't know how, don't know when. They'll get it fixed, like with the fog of war on the minimap in the next patch.
Cynic:
They introduced the bug so people would praise them when they fix it. It's a quick and simple PR ploy.
all I know (and if you've read my other posts you would know I am being literal in saying this) is that I swap the nav and the target at the top of the screen (so the map pulls down on the left side instead of the middle of the screen) and for awhile it was resetting them back to default but they fixed it.
So maybe your problem has something to do with that. Or maybe not.
I used to have customized UI colors for all characters. I've noticed lately that the custom color mixup bug has gotten even stranger as of late. Not only do my customized colors sometimes get passed from one character to the next and not only do they sometimes reset to default alignment colors...
...but now I've started getting UIs with multicolored windows. Makes me think someone at Paragon has been tinkering under the hood with the HUD customization code and has me wondering if a forthcoming QoL improvement might be the ability to customize the color of any given window or at the very least some sort of enhanced HUD customization. (Or maybe it's just an artifact produced by new database systems put in place for CoH:F. But this multi-colored UI stuff seems pretty new to me.)
