So if I choose the color grey (in RBG format), then if someone has NC toggle on, then that person will see me grey. Though to be honest I do not see a purpose to this, because if someone knows your team's RBG (or even similar color), then it defeats the purpose of this suggestion.

Well, in fact you have to see this option as an extra customization feature for your character => like choosing a name or like choosing to have longhair => another mean to distinguish oneself among clones.

People can copy colors from what i understand, so it'll just become a big confusing mess and everyone will prolly toggle it off.

If I misunderstand explain to me please.  It is kinda hard to grasp for some reason....

=> you are both right and i have to modify it in consequence

=> new version:

On the computer of the faction, the leader of the faction chooses a color
On the computer, all members can have the personal choice to wear that color or not
Also, all wastelanders will have a toggle button: toggle on: I see names around me in gangs'colors / toggle off: current situation (names white/green or red)

Of course some malicious gang could still log their faction leader before a battle, go into their base, change the color to have the color of the gang they want to attack, but I think they will be focused soon as all membership color will change consequently. So not a problem I think.

If owners of the gang will be chosing this colour there will be always this problem. Better solution would be for my faction to chose colours of other factions.

Colors will not help. Instead of colors, let it be gang name (short version)

[The Evil Eyes] Doctor Eex
[TEE] Doctor Eex

And dont let choose what to be dispalyed. What displayed - is short version of gang name. You switch off "show gang names" by hotkey.

Maybe fix the exploitable feature with a color-change cooldown of X hours/days. I mean if a gang establishes a color they wont change it.
Second Idea: make fixed colors and only 1 gang can choose 1 color.
