Been on hiatus for 5 years, good to be back.
I know how to edit unit colors, but its just a crapshoot of what I get (% red, % green, % blue). Has anyone put together a "key"- combinations of colors with the result?

Anyone can tell why changing unit colors work in game but not in the editor? I can change the color but when I save and load the scenario it resets.

More colors. It is in russian, but everything is quite simple there. In the first link we take the color, in the second decoding.

Something I only figured out recently is the following:

When you change the HQ of a unit, for some reason the unit sometimes stays the original color (I've noticed this often happens if I manually change the color of a single unit - let's say I want to earmark it for some purpose later). It that happens, if you go into 'Set unit color' and just click X each time the RGB input box comes up, it resets the unit color to the parent HQ.

Everybody probably knows this but I have owned the game for years and only just figured it out.
