Color variation within species

Racer1

I'd like to see more variation within each species. Notably, in color/patterns.
If an expandable shader is already in place, this could be done with basically zero performance overhead.

Yes, I'd like to see this as well. If we take the amount of fish in the ocean as an example and the variety there are and the colors.

It might not be such an easy thing when the creatures themselves are so erm alien, but yeah it would be really cool. Skyrim creatures/monsters were so bland in that regard until I found a mod that did what you're suggesting and it literally made it feel like a new game as the modder did such a good job on skin variations, then randomly applied across the world.
