Title: Simple, Generic Icons - Ships and Stations
Post by: Rook on May 18, 2020, 08:39:29 AM
Good day,

A while back a buddy of mine had the idea to use a simple icon for his Race's hull image.   I thought it was brilliant, and immediately stole his idea for my own game.   Figured I would share it with yall.   I expanded on it a bit, to include simple station icons, as well as color variations for encountered alien races (Neutral, Friendly, Hostile).   

I'm not entirely happy with the design of the station icon, so feel free to recommend some changes.   And if you have recommendations for anything else - color palettes, additional icons - please, send it. 

Installation:
Download the attached GenericIcons.zip
Extract the .zip to your Aurora directory.

You'll find two folders in the Aurora directory, ShipIcons and StationIcons. That's where the icons need to be placed.

Here are some examples. Hostile, Neutral, Player, and Station icons.
