Playership Drones updates will get bigger as more ships get added. Rather than support both HUD color styles, I will probably stick to one and abandon the other. This is where you come in.

I am torn on this. I prefer to stay consistent with George's style of original blue and green. On the other hand, I find that colors changing when armor or shields take damage is useful, more useful than no color change, because it catches my eyes more easily.
Download and Play in 1.9 beta 1...
Drake Technologies (Alpha): More hardware for combat in parts 1 and 2!
Star Castle Arcade: Play a classic arcade game adventure, with or without more features (like powerups)!
Playership Drones: Buy or restore exotic ships to command!

Other playable mods from 1.8 and 1.7, waiting to be updated...
Godmode v3 (WIP): Dev/cheat tool compatible with D&O parts 1 or 2.

Location: Hmm... I'm confused. Anybody have a starmap to the Core?

I actually remember requesting red colors, and I voted for it as well. I know that keeping consistent is important, but it might be possible to use typCreate so that armorsegments have different graphics depending on if the player chooses a green/blue vs red option (when the limit of 931 chars is removed, of course). This might save you some time.
