I know it's kind of an obsolete and pointless question but just for curiosity... i was wondering if there's anyway to 

display your color on you HUD even in a single player game ?

Some source ports allow you to simulate a co-op game with a single player using the -solo-net parameter (Crispy Doom, PrBoom+, dsda-doom, Woof). GZDoom allows the same by adding "coop" when using the "map" command, e.g. "map map01 coop". Aside from that I don't think there's a way. I guess you could always modify the status bar graphic to add the colored square and pretend that's the player color.

Before doing this: Remember that most maps post-Doom 1 will have additional enemies that are coop exclusive (sometimes this is used for single player as a "new game+" kinda way like in A War On Christmas) idk if vanilla freedoom phase 1 or 2 does this (i'm assuming that atleast phase 2 does)

That's sure to be an arduous task ahead of G if they ever want to play any megawad with a custom statbar

Not doable to the best of my knowledge. Except maybe if you make a custom STFB1/STPB1 graphic and put it into the .wad file.
