Status: offline 		Great release Alvaro!

This is no biggy but I tried to do a test graphics mod of the counters and I can't get the mod to show up. I named the file units.png after backing up the original, then units_alternative1.png, then units_alternative2.png. Restarted game, stood on my head, sacrificed a centipede,(I would have killed it anyway, I hate them), and nothing worked.

As I said, no biggy just gave it a try.

So say you want the 1939 to have shiny new counters you made. Place them in the 1939 scenario folder.

If you save the game it looks at the original folder for the scenario name.

There is not. There is only one single sheet for counters.

Status: offline 		Why is there three sets of infantry symbols (apart from garrison) on the units sheet? I made the false assumption it was for unit size, but after making some corrections and testing, the game shows the third symbol for every unit save the Americans, where I can see the first symbol.

Status: offline 		I had to look back at my code because I wrote the image grabber so long ago.

Going left to right on the list of images.
#1 HQ
#2 Garrison status infantry
#3 Motorized infantry ...for future development
#4 new unit class...for future development
#5 All other infantry
#6-#whatever ... the other units.

The unit sizes are on the text symbols. Thus why I didnt make a size counter image map. I made a unit type counter map.

Status: offline 		I'm not sure it can be done in this game. I like when different types of units in an army have a different color. Like white NATO symbol on a black counter for SS or gold NATO on red counter for guards. I like when counters differentiate between regular and elite units.

Can this be done?

Okay, you can't differentiate colours for unit size? Well, fine. I suspected this, since the Americans turned out with number 3 colour.

Status: offline 		The unit size symbols are not on the units.png. It is generated differently. You assign a size to a unit in the editor. It is a text font.

No you can't differentiate unit size colors. I did this differently than SC.
