What the title says, really..how can I change the icon that appears when a pesant unit is idle to something besides the four basic race icons?

THe graphic is a ui one that can be changed easily if you are using tft or roc.


ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNPeon.blp

You can replace that file by importing a tga graphic via the import manager then, going to advanced -> game interface -> idle worker and changing it to the imported or whatever you want.

Alternatively, if you import your icon and name it the same as the original icon, it will work as well.
But that's the old-fashioned way.

lol correct, overriding the race specific icon will work, but ignore us, where complexatising.

For TFT, I think it's under "Art - Icon - Game Interface", that's what works for me. If it's in RoC, I'm not sure how to do that.
