Increases the darkness so its now distinguishable

Maybe try opacity? Dimming looks wrong to me.

I don't think dimming looks that good, I tried showing the yellow border (which the blueprint already has) and think it looks better because the blueprint you move on the gameplay field has the border too. Maybe combined with opacity like peppy said?

Adjusted to use border. A bit hacky code but I don't think it's worth overthinking for now.

If I were to anticipate what the next complaint is going to be, it'd be that the border doesn't work well on yellow-orange-ish hues, e.g.:

i think a simple Alpha = 0.75f would be better, i tested it before the dim and it looked fine

[peppy]

Alpha looks bad without a buffered container for compositing, so I didn't consider that path.

@peppy shall I take your response above as acknowledgement of the discussion and a proposal to try this diff as is anyway? bit confused as to what the path forward here is

[peppy]

yep happy to go with what's here for now. until someone else complains
