Suggestion - transparent color for map group icon.

If you set up icons for groups on map, you must select background color. Add possibility to choose "no color" (transparent color) as background. To display only (custom) icon. And allow /via transparent color in .png/ to see normal map layout background.

----

Example, explanation: Not show horse icon red border. No border.

There is silly workaround, expecting many icons are in same place /usually left-down village corner/ and players villages constructed to approximately same points (10000, max, ...):

You can make your own .png icons without transparent color, but with (usuall lookout) village corner as "background" as a normal icon pixels. And use custom icons.

-----

Not tested. Not want to make needless work to play with icons when 6.0/6.1 still in developement and transparent color is not rejected.
Notions: custom icons may have problems with 1px border will appears. Not tested, just phantasy. And, of course, if icon is placeed to another space (botom center, ...) then "background" not fit.
