Would this be sufficient for you? If no, it would not be hard to refactor this and make it accessible for world scripting instead of using a globally hardcoded image path. Top Quote

Yeah, if it's possible to change it with a UI addon it's fine for me. Personally I feel it would be more at home in world addons, but then again I can understand why it's considered part of the UI.

Interestingly, it works on every other image in that folder. I also tried to replace it in the data folder of Widelands and that does work, so it's not the image that's the problem. Top Quote

I'll make a branch to fix this… Top Quote
