In today's Dev Diary, an image of how Tributaries are gonna be visualized in the new expansion, and I was a bit disappointed when I saw they are visualized as regular vassals, inside their suzerain's realm.
I think tributaries should be visualized as independent rulers on the map with some distinction to let the player know it's a tributary state.
My suggestions:
-Make the tributaries have the same color as their suzerains. This would be a nice and easy way to inform the player that X is a tributary of Y, and would help reinforce the idea that X is somewhat under the control of Y without making Y bigger on the map.
-Make the tributary have the same outline as its suzerain. A less obvious way to tell whether a country is a tributary would be to make its realm outline the same as its suzerain, while keeping its original color elsewhere.
-CK2 way. In CK2, tributaries were shown independent and with their own color, but their suzerain's would be on their realm on the map.
