7 Points on Body to tie rags :

Rags can be a number of colours, say white, red, blue, green. This gives multiple ways of positioning say up to 2 rags in certain colours. This will allow groups to be able to identify each other, however visible checks still needed. Players can also be crafty and carry rags they can change out to slip into other groups....

Yep, would be amazing, but not now, right now there are much much more serious issues.

Ah yeah absolutely, but would rather see something like this rather than green popup names etc!!

Of all the ideas I've seen for signifying membership in a group or clan, this is probably the best.  Screw a grouping/guild system, truning friendly fire off, name tags, etc.  A unique piece or several pieces of clothing to signify alliances is how it's done in the real world.  Adding the ability to dye rags/clothing would only open this up further.

Good simple idea keeping within the spirit of the game.

Cool idea man. Kinda like the fireflies in TLOU have an emblem on clothing. Would be cool if we could get color coded things/emblems.

Yes like your idea Zedsdeadbaby, armband or rags same difference, the important factor is that its lo-tech.  I'd love to see this implemented, the idea of changing out the rags and slipping into a group running along to wreak havoc would be hilarious!!
