I was afraid of that.  It looks like I will be filing a feature request.  In the mean time, I suppose I could replace the icon file itself.

Thank you.

With some caveats the answer is no.

1: If you are running the NPR and not the AI then yes you can.  If I recall correctly, this would not require SM mode.

2: For most other NPR's you would need the designer mode. 

3: The last way is to have full database access and make the change directly to the race table.


The last two are access levels that Steve grants to a limited group since it is way too easy too destabilize the game with either method of access.

Is it possible to change the icon used for another race's fleets on the Galaxy Map?  I know I can change my own fleet icon in the Races screen, but I cannot find a way to change it for another race.  The reason I ask is that I'd like to give those incredibly lethal really friendly aliens I've met a more menacing appropriate icon than the Enterprise A.  Preferably a method that doesn't involve spoilers, like opening the race data in SM mode or some such.  Thanks.
