How palette and lighting works in The Settlers II

This is a look into how palette and the effect of lights and shadows is achieved in original The Settlers II Gold Edition.

I redesigned #Settlers2Net with new content! Especially the guides to various basic stuff and mechanisms of the game have been greatly improved.

Now the site has a blog with RSS feed, and moving the posts away from the front page made space for some beginner friendly directions.

#RttR is also now with some more visibility on the site so it isn't mostly only original #settlers2 anymore.

Oh and I removed birdsite links and added in Mastodon instead.

Hope you like it!
