Adding action color code in Promotion Screen #96

Hi, I use the [WOTC] Cost-Based Ability Colors mod, which has helped immensely in understanding what ends and what doesn't end the turn. I think that adding the same kind of information would help understanding how abilities work, which the game does a poor job of explaining. For example, hacking an object doesn't end the turn but haywire protocol does, which isn't really obvious.

I'm wary of adding any such info, because there are many ways abilities can mess with action points, and it's impossible to predict whether an ability will be actually turn-ending or not, and a generic prediction may turn out untruthful. I think it's up to abilities themselves to provide this kind of information in their description.
