Quick little addon to try and help players who happen to be color blind, include a large window for the world map and smaller window for the mini map that can be tinted various colors and to any alpha value to try and help the contrast between colors.
Include new overhead arrows with letters for friendly, non aggressive/neutral and enemy targets, F N and E, also tintable to any color and alpha for easier identification. The standard UI option "Arrow Over Target" can be turned off. Also has the ability to change the color of different Item Rarity types.
All options are changed by the using slash commands, see below for full list

Caution
- Because RCG now substitutes custom colors for the standard EA colors from the TargetInfo function any other addon that counts on those colors for any purposes other then simply display may not function properly with RCG
- Because RCG now modifies the default colors for Item Rarity any other addon that references those colors directly will also be subject to the color change even if the color is not used for item rarity designations
