custom reserve TUs icons
« on: September 22, 2021, 01:01:21 am »
I don't understand how to customize these icons.
Changed the UI but vanilla icons show up.
Code: [Select]
  - type: ReserveTUs  # ?
    width: 59
    height: 24
    singleImage: true
    files:
      0: Resources/apoc/UI/reserve_TUs.png
     
  - type: ReserveTUsPressed  # ?
    width: 59
    height: 24
    singleImage: true
    files:
      0: Resources/apoc/UI/reserve_TUs_pressed.png
Thanks

Where did you find the `ReserveTUs` and `ReserveTUsPressed` sprite names?

I am not aware of any such sprites' existence.

I made them up :P
I wanted to know the correct ones.

I found this on the 40K mod and it works:
Code: [Select]
  - type: TFTDReserve
    width: 59
    height: 24
    singleImage: true
    files:
      0: Resources/apoc/UI/reserve_TUs.png
But it only defines the not-pressed version.
The pressed state is simulated by changing the palette or something. See screen attached.
If this is my only option I guess I have to come up with a slightly different design for these icons.

Currently it's the only option, but maybe we can make some new options... I've asked SupSuper how "easy" it would be.

Actually the sprite and ruleset for the reserve icons is also available in the vanilla resources/ruleset.
I'm sure I had checked the vanilla extraSprites.rul file... I don't know HOW I missed that...
